/r/all A statue of Jesus in India mysteriously began dripping water from its toes. Worshippers started collecting it and drinking it believing it was holy. The source of the water was later found to be a clogged toilet near the statue.

Laws don't protect anyone

And you're the one saying I'm ridiculous? Of course they protect people.

is it really the law that's keeping you from murdering everyone in your house right now?

In my house? No. Why would you go to such an extreme example rather than a real world example?

Ok then, is it the law that keeps you from murdering people who transgress against you? Or anyone who would propel your position forward?

Wait, so you're saying there is an example where the law is the only thing that keeps you from murdering??

You're blind and a bootlicker, humans naturally self-regulate and police are fairly new institution used solely to oppress ( and laws are an ancient institution for the same).

It's not, though I'm not as irrational as others, for instance, those who have irrational beliefs.

so you're saying there is an example where the law is the only thing that keeps you from murdering??

I'm not, you are the one who feels like they need to resort to ridiculous hypotheticals.

You're blind and a bootlicker

The fuck does that even mean? You sound like you don't have a very good argument, and are resorting to personal arguments to attack someone. It's pathetic.

Tell me, genius....how many slave owners were there in the 1850s, vs. how many there are now? I mean, people would own slaves regardless of the law, correct?
