There are not many things you must not do (There may be NOTHING, I can't think of anything right now). You can do anything you want, but you will have to take the consequences. And it is legal in many states to kill criminals, so it IS legal to kill people if they commit certain crimes. That is the price tag for certain behaviors. You don't "need" to satisfy other people. You only "need" to do that, if you want to do that, and that satisfies you. Other people only matter if you choose to let them matter. It is a choice. There is no objective reason why other people should matter. (imo) Most people are not logical enough to understand that it is a choice. They make the choice without realizing they have made it. But it is a choice.

You show a remarkable lack of understanding.

There was a time I thought it was possible to discuss issues with you intelligently.

Your post suggests that either I was wrong then, or you have changed.

If you feel that the reason you don't urinate in the grovery store aisle (if you don't, for all I know you use that example because you do) is to satisfy other people, not yourself, you have a serious problem with yourself. IMO, of course.
