Yes. I don't find "most people do it" to be a convincing excuse for personal flaws.

[supdog]

Would you find that "most people commit felonies (without harm)" to be convincing evidence of policy flaws?

[LLWM]

That claim is logically impossible. If most people were committing felonies without harm, that would lend plausible deniability to harmful felons, thus indirectly causing harm.

[supdog]

Or the claim is highly probable, if bad policy was systemically painting peaceful people as felons. If so, what then is the root cause of the harm?

[LLWM]

Asking about the root cause of the harm only has meaning if there is harm being caused.

[supdog]

Indeed.

Glad to see you've come round.
