I've often heard the fairness thing described as...

T's want everyone to have an equal chance
F's want people to have a chance they deserve.

And...Grisham wrote at least two books to get at the idea of justice

The Chamber, where a murderer is being executed, but he's innocent of the crime he's actually accused of. Where's the justice adn do we want the system working that way...

A View to a Kill, where a black man in the deep south shoots the men who raped his little girl but were acquitted in the pre Civil Rights era. Was it wrong when there was no justice?

I'm not really sugesting we debate these, just that Grisham raises the issues in the stickiest situations imaginable to get us to see how difficult they are...
