For us from born to death, we obey the laws that organized our behaviour. It derives from our long time acknowledge of our humane nature and our society. With time fleeting, we gradually establish laws to make our society evolve well without any difficulties. However, unavoidably not every law comes from truth and strict us on the behalf of the whole society.





Everyone has the responsibility to obey the just law in order to our society go well.Just law make assure that it will protect all of us in the community to have a happy and safe life without fear that some potential threatens may heart us. Coming from justice make the law win over everyone in society. Under laws, our workers got their rights form the company and fight for their own behalf, if they are treated unfair. Obeying laws, it enables us to work more functionally for society and keep our world stable. If we don't use our laws against terrorism, the flare will flame around the world and no one will fell safe anymore.





At the meantime, there also exists some unjust laws. Where does they come from? Laws are enacted by governments, and sometimes they just protect their own interest and are indifferent about populace. To accomplish their greedy goal on money or status, they sacrifice others behalf and disobey the justice of society, even more, hamper the development of our society. If we could avoid the Culture Revolution in china, our nation would have developed more faster than now, our talents in many aspects would not have to die and still toil on their fields.





So when we are facing the unjust laws, we can not just mourn under its control, most important, it is necessary to rebel it. Only through this way, we can arouse our people awareness to overthrow unjust laws and transform them into better ones. Through this, we can give a prosperous tomorrow of our nation. African Americium got free from the American Civil War, what if the people don't rebel this unjust condition without any action? Maybe slaves regime still exists at present and people in different are given equality. It would be more easier to obey some just laws than to rebel ones that are not just. To modify the wrong ones, the nation pay the heavy cost of millions of lives. But no one of them would gainsay it is not worthy doing, just as President Lincoln said(and i paraphrased): We need give everyone in our nation equal rights.





To rebel the unjust laws need our courage and determination, however, you don't need them when you obey some just laws, because what you need is just obey. Dealing with unjust ones means we need to initiate our rights to bring justice into every corners of our laws without any hesitation. By our efforts, it enlighten our hopes for a better society, a more equal one.





For all of us, it is indeed more important to disobey and resist unjust laws, only through this , the transformation about them can take place. Without our trials, it will barricade our nations steps in advance.
