Opinion isn’t what the man is going to trial for. He’s going on trial for breaking the law. If he wishes to press charges, whatever they may be, against his wife for whatever legal consequences he has for her adultery, then he is welcome to go to the police department and swear out a warrant for her arrest.

Trying to argue someone else’s wrong is worse, or that your wrong is okay because of someone else’s greater wrong justified it is a non starter. These are all moral relativism lines of logic, and I would expect them out of DU, not out of FR.

I empathize with the man, but he consciously decided to break the law, to try to argue his illegal actions were moral is foolish.

Your argument is morally bankrupt. Are you a lawyer?

Which action has the more negative consequences upon the society, the illegal entry where nothing was destroyed or taken, and no one was harmed, or the act of adultery with a married woman, which negatively impacts her children and spouse and leads to the break up of a family and eventually, society?
