Law means less than nothing to morality.
Morals are relative. The law is not (at least ideally).
My point was that what the laws says is right or wrong should have no bearing on what actually is right or wrong.
Where I am from, it was illegal for blacks to drink from certain fountains. The law is always flawed, even if we don’t see it as such today.
Many argued it was immoral for black people and white people to drink from the same fountains too. That's the problem with using morals as a standard.
