I just wanted to talk about how much I enjoyed the documentary we watched in class today, Billionaire.
I thoroughly enjoyed our discussion on legality vs morality, it really brought up some interesting points. But after thinking about it some more today, I've personally come to the conclusion that morality always comes first, legality second. In an ideal world, the two should be virtually the same, or at least legality should be derived from a common morality. But in an instance where this is not the case, I would side along the idea that "An unjust law is no law at all."
That's about all I wanted to point out, I've just been chewing on that thought all day.
