I don\\\'t like the batman quote for the page opener. A chaotic good person would agree with the sentiment that \\\"sometimes you have to ignore the rules,\\\" but the idea of justice carries with it a bit too strong a dependence on some concept of law.

My feeling is chaotic good is less about punishing people (justice) and more about stopping harm from befalling people, or resisting/helping the people resist an oppressive authority figure. A chaotic good character can acknowledge some rules are okay, and can live alongside a concept of justice until it crosses their sense of good behaviour and decency to others. But at the same time they tend to be wary of or outright DISLIKE the idea of justice.
