Fuck laws, whatever if you follow em but I honestly see them more as suggestions. The only 3 laws I think there should be are, no murder, no theft, no rape

Fuck most of the other ones, maybe I'm forgetting a few big ones but damn I wasn't born in this world to listen to some system tell me what I'm not allowed to do.

This is understandable position to have even while sober. Morality and law are not the same things. Following morals (ideals that allow humanity to prosper and be happy) makes you a good person, following law (written by people in power to keep that power and control less powerful people) just makes you obedient.

I consider myself a lawful person. I hold myself to a strict adherence to written laws, even when it inconveniences me with no apparent benefit. A strictness that sometimes makes people upset with me. But in situations where I have to choose to be lawful or moral, I always do the moral thing - damn the consequences.
