Is it possible for something to be illegal but can’t be said to be wrong ethically
Do you know it’s illegal to give rides to people at a bus stop in some places. My mom stopped and gave a ride to a woman who was running to catch a bus and missed it. The police pulled her over and told her it was illegal because people were using their cars to undercut the city buses. I’m not sure why it had to be a law, I get the safety aspect but it seems like the whole purpose was to write tickets and keep people riding the city bus.
A good example is marijuana and those other substances. Normally there is nothing ethically wrong or right about the usage of those substances, so why should they be illegal? They really shouldn’t because the usage is not constituting harm to other people or the society, it’s a personal choice. Making it illegal seem as though the state is simpl trying to look “good”.
