            you can do that whether the law exists or not. laws don’t stop that. they do, however, disproportionately punish the already marginalized classes, while serving the interests of the powerful.

              I could, but the risk reward for such an action when we have lows in place prevents me from doing it. I don’t not do things simply because they’re illegal, I break many laws all the time, I don’t do certain things because the punishment isn’t worth the reward of killing your family.

              If we have a system of no laws then I would be more inclined to do it as your resources to find me are negligible compared to the states resources.

              Now I do agree that many laws disproportionately affect the poor in our society, but I would look for reform of the system rather than abolishing it.

                  This is a somewhat selfish take, and although I don’t agree with a punitive justice system as I believe reform will lower the victims of crime more than punishing someone, as you should be thinking about the larger society and how me being off the streets means I can’t blow up someone else’s house. Sure it doesn’t get your house or family back, but it is better for society.

                  I’m afraid I don’t understand. Like I understand the words but not what you’re trying to say.

                    You’re welcome to try to keep asking the people in power to change a system that inherently benefits them. I’ll choose another path.
