    GOOD AND BAD DO EXIST

    Good and bad do exist, but rarely are they black and white. The man was guilty of murder. Samson had no qualms about arresting him – the law was the law – but was he a bad man? He had reacted the way most fathers would. An abused child is a bad thing. One less…

  • DRESSING UP

    She should love it: the one night of the year she could really be herself. She could wear the full uniform with pride.
