A just cause

Doing and saying whatever you feel like doing and saying, regardless of (both) the effect it has on the people around you, and regardless of whether or not what you're saying is consistent with truth or doing is consistent with virtue.
Hym "The 'Don't say gay' bill does the exact same thing as bill C-16. If you're a gay teacher... And a kid asks you about your relationship... You are COMPELLED BY LAW... To deflect and redirect them to the parents... So the parents can lie to their kids about relationships. It FORCES (Jordan) you to say words you otherwise wouldn't say. It's literally the exact same bill. And the claim is that kids being made vaguely aware of the existence of gay people with somehow harm them. And when people tell you that your kids are going to find out anyway and it isn't incumbent on the rest of us to live to coddle your kids, you construct a narrative adjacent to the actual topic and then live in delusion while shouting 'Lalala can't hear you! Lalala!' Until the bad-man goes away. That's your 'Standing for a just cause.' "

The just incase-case is the case of beer you get before you hit up a bar or a club, so just in case you want to keep partying you've already got a case of beer awaiting you in the car.

Also prevents you from having to find a bootlegger and paying double after the stores have closed.

Just-In-Case Christian

What people who don't think they need to be forgiven for anything call people who think they'll be forgiven for everything. Normally it's fun to point out hypocrisy, but when the person doing so is being a hypocrite in the process, it threatens to break the Logical Shitstorm Continuum.
"Godless people like to point out all the just-in-case Christians, yet they're no better since they don't think they require forgiveness for anything. Must be nice to always have a clear conscience because you're your own god."
