Does the end justify the means?

Should conservatives break the law in order to expose a disgusting behavior?

Even if breaking the law was the only avenue available to shine a light on this darkness, was it necessary being so upfront about breaking the law?

I’m having a hard time making my mind about this article. If I had decided to make illegal, surreptitious recordings, I would have send the tape to a friendly reporter anonimously .

Being so blatant about breaking the law, these conservative parents have reduced the effectiveness of their message.

Which is more important - a law against tape recording, or preventing a horrific form of child abuse? I say, saving children from this evil stuff is more important.

There were laws allowing slavery. Brave people broke them to give escaped slaves their liberty. I don't have a problem deciding whether those law breakers were right or wrong. There is a law that resides above the government's law.
