Going from a country where those rights are somewhat protected into another country where you know they aren't, and then complaining when those rights are violated, is whining. It's the same thing as that human shield woman who is complaining about being prosecuted due to her violating the travel ban on Iraq, and I actually support her case on one point: restriction of free travel is not something that should happen in a free society.
I guess if they passed a law limiting your breathing, you'd gladly play along. After all, it's the law...
That's why I have chosen to live in societies where most rights are protected. And having a family to take care of, I am not going to put myself in jeopardy by violating those laws with which I disagree.
