It's both, really. A part of the social contract is that, unless there are strong extenuating circumstances, everyone is expected to obey the law of the land.

It's kind of like with sports. Both football and basketball are perfectly fine disciplines on their own, but the most fundamental rule of any game is that all players play by the same rulebook. You can't have a game if every player thinks they're playing a different sport.

I'm reminded of when Bertrand Russel said that Hegel’s idea of freedom “means the right to obey the police and it means nothing else at all”.

Of course, you're not Hegel, and I'm definitely not Russel. So I'll just leave it at that :)
