Flip through any history book and you will see that most of the injustice and destruction that has occurred throughout the world was not the result of people “breaking the law,” but rather the result of people obeying and enforcing the “laws” of various “governments.” The evils that have been committed in spite of “authority” are trivial compared to the evils that have been committed in the name of “authority.”
And in the rare instances where it's not as bad, it's worse.
The people that hid Anne Frank were breaking the law. The people that took her to Auschwitz were obeying it.
