antony seeks justice by getting the mob, but to correct a wrong one can not commit another wrong. justify

One wrong cannot be corrected by doing yet another one. But Antony was Caesar's true and loyal friend, he was heart broken at the way Caesar was murdered. It was not only the death of Caesar that troubled him but the fact that his name was blemished by the conspirators. They defamed Caesar and portrayed him to be a traitor and an ambitious ruler just to justify their own actions. Antony wanted justice for his dear friend and he wanted Caesar's name cleared. He did not want the people of Rome to think that Caesar was ambitious, he wanted them to know that Caesar was a good ruler. He instigated the people to rise against the conspirators so that Caesar's name would be cleared. Sometimes, such measures are justified in order to attain justice.
