"Lady Justice Goes Mad"

Lady Justice has gone completely mad since she slipped up her blinder, painted her nails red and sharpened her sword. I made the sword arm movable so she can take on menacing poses or move in quickly for the kill.

Her balancing scales are removable; you can turn them round at a whimsey or add to the scale your own symbol. Everybody has a story. The Lady herself can be moved from her tower and she can sit around in other places. On top of a TV at news time is perfect.

The other characters -- the lawyers and the seekers of justice -- are glued down. But I left space if you want to add a paper character or two of your own. Enjoy the signs.

Oh, those other three, the guilty bystanders, they are me and maybe you who see injustice and don't know what to do.
