you're missing an important point.....

the law....is the law....

try to change it....but live with it until you succeed.

LAW ABIDING citizens don't get put in jail.

if you break no law.....you get no arrest.

1st rule....being ignorant of the law is no excuse for breaking it.....

we learn that in middle school......

Minors buying cigarettes might be legal....I don't even know...but selling them to a minor is illegal.....sell them and pay the price.

sell dope....pay the price...

drive too fast....pay the price....

the ETC. list goes on for miles.

you just gotta get used to it.

The Serenity Prayer


God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

--Reinhold Niebuhr

If all you can get down pat is the 1st paragraph.....that's all you need for a while.
