We live in a sea of absurdities and that's why anything goes. Why we can be sprayed from the skies and say nothing about it, why we can go into other lands and bomb people, why we have mountains or text called "laws" are are supposed to know them. The reason is one-sidedness. Everything is only one side, one perspective and the other side can go to hell. That foundational belief means no empathy and in a world without empathy, nobody is safe. It's a wonder everyone takes this quite willingly.

Law and rules are explicitly for the ignorant. If the law says you cannot do something harmless, you still have the right to. And if it says you can do something harmful you still have a responsibility not to.
