What you actually said was:

"If you violate a basic social norm, you are behaving very badly, unless it can
be shown that the norm does not apply to the situation, or does not do so with
full force. "

A norm can apply to a situation with full force, but you can still oppose it. That's the part of the equation you left out of the statement.

So you did say it, but I am comfortable with your later clarifications of it.
