Justice

If a woman accidentally kills a man,
In self-defence,
She is jailed for manslaughter,
Even though she would have died,
If she hadn't have stood up for herself.
But when a soldier kills the father,
Of a family,
With small children and a wife,
And they are left alone,
The soldier is a hero for defending his country,
Rewarded for taking a life,
Tell me, where is the justice in this?
