By now you probably heard of The Hammurabi Code and everyone has a different opinion on the subject of whether its fair or not. Well In my opinion is I think its unfair. I mean the first part of the code is OK if you break a mans arm you have to have your arm broken. but the code separates punishments with the class of people.If a lower class person accidentally poked a gentleman's eye out then he would be way more trouble then if it was a gentlemen that did it.So they are pretty much saying that some people are above the law and that is not fair.Well that's my opinion whats yours?

This essay was fascinating and entertaining to read! I think you're absolutely right that this isn't fair. I think that this law isn't equal to all and that it makes the lower class miserable and the upper class more invincible. I think that his laws should've been changed so that they could've been equal to all. Thank you for blogging this, today I learned some new valuable and fun information
