The first one illustrates a "Shepherd and sheep" relationship where the law is the Shepherd and the citizens, the sheep. If in any event, a sheep goes astray; others may follow suit. So the Shepherd has to be stern enough to compel obedience and reduce the rate at which a sheep might wander astray.



The second analogy is of the view that when leaders indulge in impunity, high - handedness and corruption Or, when the law fails those it was meant to protect, the people may be forced to take laws into their hands to bring about the desired change.
