The point I was trying to make, Cynth, was that some morals are so universal that the idea of imposing them really should be the last thing to consider. Take, for example, murder of children. I think that, except for a few extreme and long gone times and places, everyone can agree that murdering a child in cold blood is very, very wrong.
I think these people know what they are doing is wrong, but do it anyway because they can get away with it. If we were to stop them, we would not be stripping them of their morals or imposing morals on them that they didn't have before we stepped in.
