"Justice should remove the bandage from her eyes long enough to distinguish between the vicious and the unfortunate"

This quote by Robert G. Ingersoll is a call for justice to be impartial and objective. He is suggesting that justice should be blind, however not so blind that it can not distinguish between those who have actually dedicated a crime and those who have been wronged. He is asking for justice to be fair and to not be swayed by bias or preconceived notions. He is requesting for justice to be based on facts and evidence, not on individual feelings or viewpoints. He is requesting for justice to be used equally to all, regardless of their social status or background. He is asking for justice to be used without worry or favor. In short, he is requesting justice to be blind, but not so blind that it can not distinguish between the guilty and the innocent.
