InSocialWe often hear that some ordinary people choose to defend their rights because of a small dispute, but the cost of defending rights is often huge. However, when we are faced with infringers and illegal enforcers, how do we make the right choice?This article will start with a specific case to show readers the consequences of the three options and how to effectively protect themOrdinary peopleThe legitimate rights and interests of the peopleLawsconfidence and respect for order.
On July 14, Yu Changhua, a street vendor in Dongming County, Shandong Province, was detained by the chengguan while selling watermelons, and in a fit of anger, he spent tens of thousands of yuan in lawyer fees to take the chengguan to court. After months of waiting and debating, it finally took place on December 10thCourtsA verdict was rendered. The verdict showed that the chengguan had violated the law enforcement process, so the chengguan was required to return Yu Changhua's vehicle within 10 days and compensate her for the loss of 2,800 yuan of watermelons. Is this a result really a win for Yu Changhua?She spent huge legal fees and a lengthy legal process, and in the end she received only a paltry amount of damages. This made Yu Changhua cry, and her victory seemed to have turned into a joke and a typical case where the cost of rights protection is greater than the cost of infringement.
However, the verdict of this case has sparked heated discussions on the Internet. Netizens have said that how can such a verdict take into account heavenly justice, fairness and justice?Although Yu Changhua won the lawsuit, she paid so much time, energy and money for it, and in the end she only received a negligible compensation. This raises questions about whether job-related crimes have almost no cost, and it makes people rightSocialWorries about the possible catastrophe. The people have called for a fair and reasonable divisionRule of lawto protect the legitimate rights and interests of the people and prevent the occurrence of illegal law enforcement.
For street vendors like Yu Changhua and other poor people, what should they do when faced with illegal law enforcement by law enforcement agencies?Here are three possible ways:
(1) Swallow your anger and accept losses
First of all, Yu Changhua can choose to endure this breath and not make any resistance, just silently accept the loss. She can give up her ownTricyclesand watermelons, and bear the loss of thousands of dollars. For her personally, this method may be the lowest-cost option, but for the wholeSocial, but the consequences are the most severe. If people choose to remain silent and tolerate lawlessness and violence, lawbreakers will act more brazenly and more poor people will be harmed.
(2) Litigation through lawful channels
Secondly, Yu Changhua can choose to fight a lawsuit through legal channels and seek justice. This method requires her to invest a lot of manpower, material resources and energy, and endure long waits and uncertainties. Although she won the case in court, she only recovered the cost of the lost item in the end, and the compensation she received was far from compensating for everything she had paid for it. ForSocialThis approach is even more harmful. Lawbreakers will feel zero cost and continue to enforce the law with impunity and violence, whileSocialofCredibilityAnd the people rightLawsRespect can also be seriously threatened.
(3) Violently resisting the law and risking their lives
In the end, Yu Changhua can also choose to resist the law violently and counter violence with violence. She can abandon legal channels and use illegal means to retaliate against those who violate the law. However, this way the individual loses the most, whileSocialThe harm is relatively small. Because such an act will put the lawbreaker at greater risk, and when the law is violated, it will feel that a hammer of justice hangs over their heads, so as to play an effective deterrent role.
(1) Accept the consequences of loss
If Yu Changhua chooses to swallow her anger and accept the loss, for her personally, the loss will be the smallest. However, for the wholeSocialThe consequences are the most severe. Illegal and violent law enforcement will only intensify, and even more poor people will suffer. SocialOrder will fall into chaos, and people will beLawsand the trust of law enforcement will also be completely undermined.
(2) The consequences of litigation through lawful channels
For Yu Changhua personally, fighting a lawsuit through legal channels may be a way to pursue justice. Despite her victory in court, she paid a huge price for it, and the compensation she received in the end was nothing compared to the damage she suffered. WhileSocialThe harm is greater, the cost of illegal law enforcement is extremely low, and law enforcers will be more unscrupulous in illegal law enforcement and violent law enforcement, and the people are forLawsconfidence will also be severely damaged.
(3) The consequences of violent resistance to the law
If Yu Changhua chooses to resist the law by countering violence with violence, the personal loss will be the greatest. However, this is also the least harmful way. Because for those who violate the law, violent resistance to the law will make them worried, and they will feel a hammer of justice hanging over their heads when they violate the law, which will play a very effective deterrent role. This approach forces law enforcement to think about its own actions, limiting the occurrence of violations while also protectingOrdinary peoplelegitimate interests.
This case makes us think about how to protect it effectivelyOrdinary peopleof the legal rights and interests of restorationSocialRightLawsWhat about the confidence and respect of order?In the justice system, we need to make some changes and reflections:
First of all, strengthen the training of law enforcers andEducationto make it strictly adhered toLawsand law enforcement procedures to prevent the occurrence of illegal law enforcement acts. At the same time, the implementation of a supervision mechanism for law enforcement departments to allow the public to supervise and report illegal law enforcement activities.
Secondly, improve the divisionRule of lawdegree, upLawstransparency and enforcement. Make sureLawsFairness and applicability, severe punishment of infringers and law enforcers in order to curb their illegal acts.
In addition, the establishment of a soundInsuranceClaim settlement mechanism to protect the rights and interests of the insured. Avoid a situation where the cost of rights protection is much greater than the cost of infringement due to the refusal of compensation for various reasons.
Finally, passedEducationand propaganda to raise public awarenessLawsunderstanding and respect, cultivating everyone to exerciseLawsThe awareness of rights to defend their rights andSocialFair.
In short, in the face of illegal law enforcement, we cannot choose to remain silent and trample on our own rights and interests, but we also cannot easily take illegal means to retaliate. We need to fight for our rights and interests through legal means, and we also need to reform the DivisionRule of lawdegree, to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the people, letLawsIt has the effect it should have.
