You're correct. My point was directed more towards people, like the parent I was replying to, who defend government actions simply because something is illegal.

You're correct. My point was directed more towards people, like the parent I was replying to, who defend government actions simply because something is illegal. It would be equivalent to defending people who returned escaped slaves back in the day because it was the law to do so at the time.
