Observing that a law is being broken by more and more is an excellent opportunity to review if the law is just. Doesn’t mean it should be legalized it might mean that the ones breaking the law should be pursued with more aggressiveness. Drug usage is a good example but so is speeding, should we raise the limit in areas that more and more people speed in? Or go after the speeders? How about illegal immigration, lots of people do that, should it be legalized? Or should we go after the ones breaking that law?
