Then what the hell are we doing with laws the prohibit murder and theft?

It seems some people can't make the distinction between a moral objection and actual harm.

What the hell are you talking about?

We have these morons all the time, carping about how we "cannot legislate morality." But guess what? We already do. That's why we have laws against murder, theft, suicide and drug abuse.

That's why I say these people who make such ludicrous statements had better be willing to take what they are saying to its logical conclusion or they should just shut up.

It is a moral stance to stay that harming another is wrong.
