If or when we choose to transgress, we should at least be honest with ourselves about it.
Kickstart,
Again +100, and that’s the key, in a civilized society laws apply equally to all, and those who think that they’re “above” the law either end up in jail/prison or worse in the ground. As the laws of physics can be
VERY unforgiving, and there is probably a “Darwin Award” somewhere in their future.
Agreed, if someone such as our friend Joey is going to routinely break the law, they at the very least need to be honest with themselves and admit that they are
NOT doing so for anyone but their one convenience. And just as it’s been said that most LEOs would laugh at being called out to a public trail/MUP/path because one group was blocking it, they will likewise laugh when they stop someone on a bike for running a red light/stop sign because it was “safer” to do so or because it was the “polite” thing to do.
