A just system is where all humans have the same human rights and the same opportunities

No just system can be formed on such a principle. No two humans will ever have equal opportunities, without destroying all progress, individuality, and justice (it is unjust that one person should be held responsible for the choices of others).

I've come to think that equality of opportunity is wrong, and the alternative that we should fight for is equality before the law. We should also strive to treat people as they deserve, based on their character, choices and actions.

Well, I mean you just said a bunch of things with no supporting arguments. And, since people affect those around them, including their choices, there absolutely is a share of responsibility for the choices of the people you affect such as your children.

> I've come to think that equality of opportunity is wrong

That happens when people try to justify why they deserve more than others based on nothing.

> and the alternative that we should fight for is equality before the law

That's not an alternative, that is something that is also required.

> We should also strive to treat people as they deserve, based on their character, choices and actions.

I guess you leave homeless people to die on the street because you intricately know their character, choices and actions, and based on those you decided that they deserve it?
