As Mojo said, morality is subjective and, IMO, depends on time and place as well as circumstances. Obviously the murder scenarios would leave a greater sense of guilt than the pot smoking, but the murder might be of a well-known pedophile bent on raping again. Who's in the right there?
The law doesn't equivocate on the legal ramifications. You are responsible if the law says so. If you don't like it, lobby to have the law changed. It is black and white while the morality has a much more grey in it.
