"The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread." - Anatole France

To hell with your laws when they serve to oppress.



Such a binary either/or kind of thinking. Reductionist, too. Did it ever occur to you that there are better and worse ways to deal with bad laws, or bad application of laws? Anarchy is a markedly inferior alternative which every time in history has only enabled a new set of oligarchs to rise.


But is it clear this this law oppresses?
