Accountability is the first step. Everyone should’ve accountable for their actions. But Justice is much bigger. It involves healing and restoration. It involves transforming the hearts of the McMichels to help them understand that what they did was wrong and for them to want to make restitution. It involves changing the subculture that caused 3 men to think that they were right in chasing a black jogger in their neighborhood with guns. Justice is trying to bring Gods kingdom to earth. A big goal, but why did the founders of our country say they wanted liberty and justice for all? It’s the American dream.
