Chapter 3041 hue and cry(6)



In the Decameron written by Boccaccio, when the plague was raging in Florence, 10 men and women left the city and took refuge in a villa in the countryside. They played and entertained all day long, and each told a story every day.

To pass the time.

In the history recorded by Machiavelli, a Florentine said: "People gather in various cities in Italy, and they are all prone to corruption. The young are idle, the old are dissolute and shameless, men, women and children are full of bad habits, that is,

Good laws cannot be corrected due to improper implementation.”

A person from the lower class said this: Rich and poor make us distinguished between high and low. Conscience has nothing to do with us. There is no need to think about it, because people like us often have to worry about hunger, imprisonment or beheading.

The fear of hell cannot and should not have any effect on us.

For the victors, no matter what means they use to win, people only consider their glory.

Therefore only "sheep" deserve to be frightened.

The Romans claimed to have been raised by she-wolves. Maybe these people made a living by carding wool, but that didn't mean they were willing to live like that. As long as the opportunity came, they would take off their coats and change back to their original appearance.

After the chaos broke out, they began to set fire to Florence, the richest city in Europe, and looted it. It seemed that they thought that as long as the wealth was in their hands, they would not have to endure hunger.

Agriculture requires a large number of people, at least before agricultural mechanization. When a large number of people died due to the Black Death, not only the people who cultivated the land were gone, but a large amount of land was left idle and deserted, as well as the people responsible for transportation.

As wages rise, prices rise, but this time it has nothing to do with inflation.

In order to keep the whole society going, people are intolerant of those who live but rely on begging. There are even laws that allow private individuals to capture these homeless people and let them work for themselves for free for a period of time.

If the noble men and women hiding in the country villa had no food, they would not be able to stay in that shelter for long.

The food placed on the table is accomplished through the cooperation of many people. Some people are farmers, some are herdsmen, some are engaged in transportation, and some are butchers. People cooperate with each other and live together.

Life becomes convenient and full of fun.

If, on the other hand, like the men and women who took refuge in the villa, it is better to live alone than to live with a group of people, then there is probably a problem with public management.

This does not only refer to people's health and urban sanitation. In a class note written by a bishop for the crown prince, it is written like this: "Without a vibrant, healthy and moderate population, it will be difficult for the prince and the country to be strong and worthy of

It should be noted that the population is not an absolute number, but a number of people who can be integrated into the country to make the population reach the maximum number as much as possible."

For example, in this example, Thomas Wayne condemned the clowns who took their lives for those employees who were still working during the strike, but did not mention the employees who were causing trouble in the streets and going on strike. They all worked for Thomas Wayne.

These employees who are still working are "effective people". To maximize the number of these people, Thomas Wayne's approach backfired and angered those who had "nothing" like the clown. They followed the clown as an example.

Attacks on those "who have a lot" escalated to the point where Gotham was engulfed in flames.

He is not even as good as the mayor who has cut welfare expenditures and paid police salaries. At least some people will leave the strike team because of lack of money to buy medicine and go back to work. If he has a job, he will not be unemployed like Arthur.

if.

Of course, this knowledge is not found in common schools, but there is a ghost in Hogwarts who aspires to be a cardinal, and he also teaches Pomona some other things besides French.

In Latin, peace and justice refer to the entry into force of Roman law, including pax romana.

In Germanic law, war after oppression (injuria) was just.

It was slaves who destroyed the eternal city of Rome. Many of these slaves were Germans. Because they were oppressed by the Romans, it was just for them to launch a war.

Oppression - (war = justice) - peace.

Peace gained by fighting oppression is just.

However, now it has become peace = justice, oppression = war.

In most cases, Pomona is a "pacifist", but now it's hard to say whether she is.

Taking classes in a greenhouse is a kind of torture. The transparent glass allows the sunlight to shine through without any hindrance. Although this is beneficial to the illumination of plants, it makes the greenhouse as hot as an oven. One child even suffered from heat stroke.

She sent the child to the hospital wing with a responsible attitude, but unexpectedly she met Elena there. She fell off the broom and fell into a coma.

Riding a broomstick is not like a driver's license, which requires passing the test. Anyway, she can learn to apparate in the future, which requires a license.

Originally, Elena was wandering around in the air, but then someone flew past her with a "whoosh", as if to show how well he rode a broom, and then took Elena off the broom.

Pomona was about to ask the man's name when Myrtle's cry came from "next door".

Pandora is right, why not show pictures or models of plants in the classroom, but go to the greenhouse to "sunbathe"?

Then she went next door to find Myrtle, the ghost and the cold water might cool her down.

When she got to the deserted bathroom, Myrtle was sitting on the sink crying, and all the faucets were turned on.

"Who messed with you this time? Paul again?" Pomona asked.

"Her nephew is in school!" Myrtle said angrily.

Pomona couldn't remember who "she" was.

"Oliver Humbey!" said Myrtle.

It dawned on Pomona, and then she didn't understand.

"Why is her nephew in school?" Pomona asked.

"It's not because...he now works in the Ministry of Magic." Myrtle started crying again as she spoke.

Myrtle was imprisoned here by the Ministry of Magic because she caused a scene at her brother's wedding after turning into a ghost.

The Ministry of Magic's approach of "calming down troubles" indeed maintained the "peace" of living people, but it prevented Myrtle's revenge.

Severus seemed to have said something to her, but Pomona had "forgot it all" now. It was obvious that the Ministry of Magic convicted Percival Dumbledore to prevent him from taking revenge. The next time he encountered the same situation, he would be bullied.

People who want to give up resistance can only do it.

In other words, the Ministry of Magic has used public power to maintain "peace", but this "peace" is to establish an activity space autocratically. Peace = justice. All actions that break "peace" are unjust. Those who try to break "peace" must be punished.

Punishment is imposed on the person who made the mistake, not the person who actually made the mistake.

Grindelwald asked, who does that law protect?

The question remains, should one person's interests be sacrificed for the interests of more people? Under this criterion, Richard Parker should be eaten.

If people agree with this "maritime practice", then killing will be justified and they will do anything to keep themselves alive.

Then we encounter a new problem. Will living with such people feel convenient, interesting and happy?

There is a boundary when dividing personal and public space, and there is a narrow principle of proportionality. If the harm caused to citizens' rights during the implementation of public power must be less than the public benefits it brings.

If public power "behaves improperly" during its implementation, it will lose its legitimate basis.

Did Albus Dumbledore really do it for the "greater good", or was it because the number of wizards was smaller than that of Muggles and he saw that this war could not be won, so he chose such a path.

Pomona closed her eyes and recalled what Albus said to her by the lake when she first entered school.

Be patient and then take revenge afterwards, but I believe you have forgotten by then.

Whether he forgives or forgets, Albus Dumbledore has no intention of taking revenge on the Muggles. He has chosen to be a "sage" and make wiser choices.

She didn't know who had the idea to trap Myrtle in the place where she died. It was easy to do and served as a punishment, but it was too cruel.

Maybe Pomona couldn't free the house elves, but she could free Myrtle.

Just Myrtle…

"Dean," Madam Pomfrey said suddenly, "Miss Duncan is awake."

Pomona looked at Myrtle again. She had gotten into an unknown toilet and was washed away by the water, but the water still remained on the ground.

The world is unfair, but she doesn't want to be like a child who says "it's not fair" when she doesn't get something.

The Fat Monk's ideal is to speak out for those who cannot speak for themselves.

She pursed her lips, but found that she could not find her voice, as if she were the little mermaid who had lost her beautiful singing voice.

Then I thought about it, the mermaid is still a beauty without her voice, this is just an inappropriate metaphor for her.

"Come right away," Pomona said, turning around and leaving.

There should indeed be a boundary between the living and the dead, but it is a pity that some dead people do not understand it well, which makes the living people have no peace.

The problem is that we can't find a place to lock her up like Myrtle. Who allows her to live in other people's memories, and is protected by many occlumency techniques, like a castle protected by walls, extremely safe, at least better than

The "castle" protected by the Loyalty Charm is safe.
