Whether the 'law' is "right or wrong, those people made the choice to engage in illegal behavior. They knew the risk. --"

That's the question, -- do we have to obey the 'law' --- "right or wrong"?

We took that risk back in 1776, and answered no... -- Now here we are again, arguing that same question with another gov't out of control.

The answer remains the same, -- laws repugnant to the Constitution are null & void from enactment.

That's all well and good, but don't then whine about peoples' lives being ruined because they're in jail.
