RE: Random Thought of the Day - Daily Contest #43 - When, if ever, is it okay to break the law?

in Proof of Brain3 years ago

One of our duties as free people is to break unjust laws to point out the fact they are unjust. When done peacefully and publicly, it's called civil disobedience, one of the most important and powerful types of activism.

NOTE: This is a truth you will not hear from the mainstream/state, which claims there is NO reason anyone should ever break its laws.

One law we should not break is the common law, which is essentially the golden rule. Do no harm to others without their consent. That is the foundation of a free society.

This knowledge is no longer taught in schools.

Yeah man..well said 😀

Sadly it is changing now so that anyone who questions the law is being portrayed some kind of terrorist. The UK government have brought in new laws that make peaceful protests illegal. This is just the start.

Yeah. It used to be the state formed itself around the people. Now, the state expects the people to adjust to the needs and desires of the state. Rule by oligarchs instead of individual liberty. But all things change, and this doesn't have to be forever. Interesting times!

Interesting times indeed. !!
