This is a difficult issue for me. I'm relatively law-abiding. I often ask myself "if someone saw me do this, would I be proud of my behavior?", and the answer guides my actions. But...
I want the bad guys punished.
I believe that most people don't pay attention to laws because they feel that they won't get caught, and in most cases, they don't.
I don't want high taxes to pay for law enforcement.
I want my privacy.
I want oversight of "homeland spying".
I believe in the concept of probable cause.
I don't want to have to injure or kill to defend myself or my family.
I want to be safe.
In summary, it's not a black-and-white issue for me.
