A basic principle

| 0 Comments
Stuff like this makes me wonder how any decent cop could take part in the enforcement of such a clearly unconstitutional, unjust law. Then I realized that the answer is that a decent man could not enforce such a law. There comes a point where personal honor would demand that a decent man lay down his badge and gun and walk away. No accountable, moral agent gets the excuse of "I was just following orders;" only robots have that excuse.
