All of it's true in fact:
[From 1996 the website of the Colchester tourist board attributed the origin of the rhyme to a cannon recorded as used from the church of St Mary-at-the-Wall by the Royalist defenders in the siege of 1648. In 1648 the town of Colchester was a walled town with a castle and several churches and was protected by the city wall. A large cannon, which the website claimed was colloquially called Humpty Dumpty, was strategically placed on the wall. A shot from a Parliamentary cannon succeeded in damaging the wall beneath Humpty Dumpty which caused the cannon to tumble to the ground. The Royalists, or Cavaliers, 'all the King's men' attempted to raise Humpty Dumpty on to another part of the wall, but because the cannon was so heavy ' All the King's horses and all the King's men couldn't put Humpty together again.' ]

Is justice a fairytale?

Yes. Justice is a fallacy, it is not real, only perceived.

That is like a man who has only lived in darkness, saying;

"Only darkness exists. Light is only a concept. It doesn't exist anywhere."

Justice is real, if we choose it.

The light is real, if we choose it.

Our choices are much more 'real' than this physical world, more real than even our lives.

Our choices are the tangible 'thing', which will remain of us, when our physical bodies have become dust.

Everyday in our lives, we make choices, ....and it is those choices that define who we really are.

And, we can make good choices, or, we can make poor choices.

What is 'light', what is 'justice' ?

Matthew 7:12
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

"....the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart."

Samuel

'Justice is a fallacy, it is not real, only perceived.'

I'd rather search for the light, than sit and curse the darkness.
Yadda

Psalms 119:130
The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.

That was his choice and an example of justice?

Romans were into fairy tales and loked for omens in how birds or animals behaved. Sometimes they wrote facts and built a few stone buildings.
[The emperor Claudius reigned 41 to 54 AD. Suetonius reports his dealings with the eastern Roman Empire, that is, with Greece and Macedonia, and with the Lycians, Rhodians, and Trojans. He then reports that the emperor expelled the Jews from Rome, since they "constantly made disturbances at the instigation of Christ" (Judaeos impulsore Chresto assidue tumultuantis Roma expulit)].

It sort of puts things into perspective. Good video, goes to show that without science we are limited to what we are told or what is already known or assumed.
