What should we do about unjust laws?

Unjust laws exist: shall we be content to obey them, or shall we endeavor to amend them, and obey them until we have succeeded, or shall we transgress them at once?

Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862)

    If you choose not to obey them then you will be convicted by them...no matter what some dead thinker had to say about it.

    If you don't agree with a law then work with your legislators to get a law changed.

    Obama just chooses to not enforce them but he is special and you won't be able to get away with that.
