No. What is in evidence is that YOU do not understand that I understand that.

Because you said You see, I don't distinguish between "right" and "right".

What is further in evidence is that you do NOT understand that I don't see any reason that moral and legal should not match.

I understand that, but that assumes a perfect harmony between legal state and moral belief and we're not there and not going to *get* there without a lot of work but you keep using verb tenses that indicate we *are* there and then protesting the universe is outta whack.

The severe problem is that the word "right" can mean such an ambigous set of ideas that you have to define the terms for what you are saying before you can say it

I've already stated my position:
"legal" != "right"

You seem to be arguing that:
"legal" == "right

*sigh* read this again [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=5134|here]

"legal"=="right(" is true if you mean a person is given rights through legal means
"legal" == "right" is false if you mean that something in righteous because it is legal and unrighteous because it is not

(and the first is almost a tautaology>

I'm not syaing "legal==right" or "legal != right", I'm saying it depends on what you mean by "right"

Context.

"I'm not syaing "legal==right" or "legal != right", I'm saying it depends on what you mean by "right""

Which is where CONTEXT comes into the picture.

Such as when I say that my rights are INHERENT and CANNOT be taken by the government.

I'm going to stop now.

From your other posts, it seems that you were NOT arguing whether I have the ability to express my views via civil disobedience.

You were just confused by my use of the word "right"
-and-
That I did not ALSO specify that I would seek to change the laws.

Is that so?
