What law?

Vice-a-roni.

It’s definitely an extreme.

The law is not always ethical, if they chose unethical laws over ethical illegality, it is definitely a vice.

In general though I think it’s a virtue in terms of making them trustworthy, or atleast predictably consistent in their choices.

As far as I’m concerned though

FUCK THE LAW 🖕

I don't hate the concept, but the system is flawed.

And here I thought I was reposting the “controversial” Note of the evening ❤️

😅 I think yours wins

Yay!! 💜💜💜💜 Smiling and 🫂

I'm not interested in law abiding citizens.

We all have the capability of doing what we are told or not.

Where are the moral abiding citizens?

Mere pragmatism

It is definitely both

Mostly vice. Nazi Germany had many law abiding citizens, yet we now honor those who rebelled

Government is of the people , by the people, for the people

but it’s vice-e-versa now

Depends on the laws.
