I fear you are misrepresenting my views. I can't think of any law that I
view as "immoral", but I can list a few that I view as being "unjust" to me.
However, I share this island with a lot of other people, and I am polite
enough to respect their views. If I feel a law is "unjust" to more than just
me, I might right a letter to my elected representative or take part in a
protest.
With great respect, I view your outlook on this as being a little selfish.
If we all thought a little more about our fellow man, and a little less
about ourselves, perhaps this world would be a tiny little bit better…
