Law is a man made way to judge things to be right or wrong. Basically, if you were to want to be treated fairly, you would make a law that others accept and is upheld by someone in power, power over police, military and of course government offices. These are the enforcers of the law, and, they are there to protect people and animals and the environment from those that will harm them in some way. Basically, law is there for the preservation of the few and many alike, where majorities and minorities, families and cities, races and religions, can have equal footing regarding their will. This will be where the rules of the law are there for the sake of all that wish to use them, that they are represented with force if need be, to be treated as the law says they should be, of course.
