I guess it's easy to look at things this way if you're not on the wrong end of this "how things look" situation. Your argument strikes me as incredibly dishones

- roenxi 5y agoEnforcing the law is, in a sense, evil. At the end of the day enforcement is some combination of violence, coercion and thoughtfully depriving people of life/liberty/comfort. The enforcement system is wildly imperfect and a side effect of that is the people involved have to make judgement calls about how to treat the people who get caught up in the legal system. If you can think of a way around that then you'll get your name in the history books. > Your argument strikes me as incredibly dishonest at best, and just plain evil at worst. Hopefully the path from dishonest to evil passes through some more positive places, because there are a lot of options that seem to be missing there.
