Have you read "The Law" by Frederic Basiat? When a government goes beyond it's purpose of securing the natural rights f the people, protecting the nation against foreign aggression and the people against acts that deprive them of life , liberty and property by others, life of the individual becomes nasty, brutish and short.

Do you know the difference between malum in se and malum prohibitum offenses?

Quite well. A lot of people think that pot selling is a malum prohibitum. My dead friends cry from the grave that it is a malum in se.
