There's a difference between "I want laws to change" and "I'm in favour of people breaking the law". There's also a level of hypocrisy in saying "Those gat dang illegul immgrants should learn to follow the law!" while simultaneously celebrating someone committing a felony. Kyuubi4269 posted... You don't get to decide another country's laws, it's kinda why we have different countries. Just like how no one said anything about Apartheid in South Africa, right? Wait... Rasmoh posted... Law is literally just a collection of opinions on what people consider right and wrong, which is why they change all the time. Sure. There's just one problem with this assertion: the laws on corporal punishment haven't changed. At no point has it ever been legal for a group of prisoners to assault another prisoner, and judicially-administered corporal punishment hasn't been practised in nearly 70 years. Nor, for that matter, do a majority of people think it should change. I mean, would you be fine with a bunch of child murderers beating up an informant in prison on drug charges? After all, that's still prisoners meting out "jailhouse justice". Rasmoh posted... My mindset doesn't involve harming the innocent. The illegal immigrant mindset does. I can go ahead and flip this around by pointing out that your mindset involves a group of people committing a felony so that they can administer a punishment that they lack any authority to give against someone who has been offered no legal defence against it. Mob rule, in other words. Those illegal immigrants, on the other hand, generally want to harm no one - the vast majority just want a better life for themselves, which is why crime rates for illegal immigrants are lower than those of the native-born population. --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer.
