Why do people who break the law expect not to be thrown into vans, or hurt.....?

It is everyone's right not to be abused, that is the law. Sometimes the police step over the line, most often the criminals do. Still it is an officer's duty to see the scumbag gets to jail in as best shape as is humanly posssible to deliver him/her. Otherwise they will cry and kick up a fuss hoping people will forget they broke the law in the first place.

Because they want you to realize that you need an education otherwise most people resort to crime and you will end up doing a lot more community service.  It's a punishment for breaking the law.  You are not supposed to enjoy it.  I recommend stop getting caught.

First, this is being reported as an accident.\nSecond, if the other person does not press charges, then there is nothing that anyone can do.

Is it any wonder that lawyers are so despised? When do people start taking responsibilities for themselves? They were trespassing on railroad property and climbed on top of a boxcar, which is more trespassing. This is a travesty.

Because they like breaking the law

Must of us know that. It is a defense that some used. Some feel it is against the people or you would ignore the law. Ever see those questions where it said-we all break them? What kind of morals to they have? Do they truly believe that? \n You are right for many it is about country.

Nothing at all.....yes they should be punished to the fullest extint of the law.  How does it look for the people who are put in place to enforce the law constantly break it and get away scott free?  This may go on but it takes courageous individuals who know of this type of inappropriate behavior to come forward and make this unsavory deeds known.  No matter what the cost....a philosopher once said....without struggle there is no success.......

No, I don't think so! The point is, is that you broke the law. It may be considered but just because your a good person, it doesn't mean that you may be go.

Not all laws are Godly laws, and there are corrupt people in all professions. I would say sometimes the people in law enforcement over step their bounds and even to the point of killing someone, but this doesn't mean all people in law enforcement are acting ungodly.

Yes. My brother got a ride to work after he wrecked his car on icy pavement. And I got a ride on a holiday when no bus or taxi was passing by. And the person that wrecks your day is usually yourself. The police is just keeping you from doing even greater harm to the general public. In fairness I must say that none of the above facts happened in the USA. One episode was in Germany and the other in Brazil. You have tough laws in the USA for things that are not even noticed in other countries. Like peeing on the street or drinking in public or prostitution

Most lawbreakers try to excuse themselves, often \nby accusing you of doing something wrong. All races have\nlawbreakers so merely condemning someone of breaking a\nlaw does not make you a racist unless you say that a\nparticular race is likely to break laws. Lawbreakers may\nfeel that because pandering politicians, businesses that\nwant cheap labor, and churches which want more members\nencourage them it's ok to be criminal.

Your question is good and very interesting. What it shows is the many contradicitons in the law.\n\nIf goverment had it their way--I imagine they would outlaw many of the personal freedoms we have.\nWhy one law is set in place opposed to another depends on the lobby of folks in higher places that are willing to fight agaisnt it.\n\nIt is a fine line the goverment walks as they make laws on a public level without stepping on peoples personal rights.\n\nHowever--you are not without choice--you can choose not to wear seatbelts and pay the 10$ ticket if caught or you can organize folks to fight agaisnt an unjust law.\n\nLike I said above--it is these fights that explain why we have so many contradictions.

They would be scared to death. They dont like their own laws. But as long as they can talk about it, and not actually "do" it, its OK.

Because people like you break the law.  Stop your whining and take your lumps.  And slow down.

Sure they do. If you break the law you don't want to hear others don't like your bad ways. And now they are getting tough on law breakers--they are being run out of town.

I'd rather not get any tickets at all ...I can't choose because I just don't want any, no matter what it's for, I try my best to obey the law and not waste the police's time by doing something stupid when they could be out chasing the real bad guys...sorry, just can't pick one, don't want any..lol

Law is an obligation of the society to which a person has to abide. Any law that violates your rights is morally wrong. However, your right should not hinder/hurt other people's rights/sentiments. Breaking a law is dangerous when you are prone to get caught.. however, people tend to bend laws and break laws.. to which the penalty is not severe.. say, like speeding, not wearing seat belts, etc. Any law would be right if it doesnt invade the realms of Human rights and religious beliefs of a person. If you are unhappy with any law, you can fight it in the court of justice or ask your legislature to change/modify. However thats a very tiring and exhaustive process.
