Don't use logic we're talking right and wrong. The rules of logic don't
apply. Use emotion. If someone "feels" it's wrong they might try and
make it illegal. It's all a matter of perspective. I don't think sex
on a lawn is wrong but enough people do to make it illegal. I was also
only stating the way the proccess (law making) flows. A percieved wrong
then a law. Not a law changing the perception of something previously
percieved of as "right". For example say I was all powerful ;) I could
then make a law making walking across the street in a crosswalk illegal,
changing the perception of walking in the crosswalk to one of it not
being "right".
