Legality is a formality built on a belief. Most people believe murder is wrong, so we've made laws which punish it. Most people believe theft is wrong, so we've made laws to punish it. Something merely being illegal does not make it inherently wrong, though, it's the believe that makes that determination.
So, in other threads when we discuss that particular issue, why must you always simply say that it's wrong because it's illegal? What if giving birth were illegal or free speech?
Pan, why should undocumented immigration be illegal?
