To make his point, he refers to the education of youth versus the training of a horse. If a trainer is the only person qualified to train a horse, and not the rest of the population, shouldn't there be only a few “trainer” people who can teach young people? If this is true, Socrates points out that many other people should be tried along with him, because he is not alone in this. Socrates concludes his argument by comparing the definition of a truly evil person to that of a person who breaks a rule unknowingly. Socrates agrees that the evil person is aware of what he is doing wrong. Because they understand, they must face the consequences of their actions through trials and punishments. On the other hand, the person who broke the rules and committed a crime unknowingly did not have the knowledge that the evil person had. Since they did not break it willingly, they should not be punished, but advised on how to correct their actions. This helps demonstrate that Socrates is arguing that the correct action is not being taken against him for “corrupting the youth.” Rather, injustice is imposed on him. Through this injustice, he can act to disobey any resulting consequences, or more specifically, practice philosophy in front of many people who do not agree with his thinking.
