I get the sentiment, but depending on the particular activity, not breaking the law is an advantage. A peaceful protest in front of a government building following all laws makes it harder to justify breaking up, especially breaking up violently. It’s a PR game just as much as it’s a social action game. To be clear, though, this doesn’t cover every instance, but there are times where following the rules to the letter is beneficial…just not always.
God forbid we break the law
