Braking the law. Can we choose what laws we want to obey?

Question

I would like an answer to this troubling question. If I brake a federal law, do I have to pay the consequences for doing so?

Be aware that after I get answers to this question I will then update to what law I am pertaining too. Okay? Lets try it. Thanks

You know I looked at that, Hmmm thats not right, Sorry for the wrong usage, but I am a mechanic and use that word a LOT!

I like what I am getting so far!

I believe it is a fed and state law also.

The Law I am pertaining to is illegal Immigration and deportation of illegal immigrants. I feel that this law is being broken daily if not hourly and by the minute. I have read the laws on how immigrants can stay here legally and how they after much trouble the USA can deport them but don't. Why can illegals get away with breaking our current laws?. I don't have this luxury of breaking federal law and walk around this county like I have the right to break American Law. What is up?

Thanks everyone that posted, I know it was a risk to answer such a question not know all the details.

Answer 1

If you could choose what laws you wished to obey & those you didn't, what would be the point of having any law? Most laws are written for the well being of all people, i.e.: no speeding in a school zone, muffler laws, noise laws etc. To allow one person to knowingly break the law & not be punished is the same as not having a law. The opposit of law & order is anarchy. If you are speaking of an atiquated law still on the books, then that just might be a different story.
If this is a trick question, then you have just wasted my time! Thanks!

Answer 2

Only if you are from another country. Diplomats are allowed to break laws everyday and get away with it. Illegal aliens break major federal laws just by coming into the United States without following the correct procedures and get rewarded for it.

Answer 3

Not always.

it would depend on many factors. Such as what the law was, how egregious was the infraction and who is your lawyer. And how much money or how famous are you.

Look at the latest court cases with Blake, Michael Jackson and Phil Spector. two have thus far gotten away with murder, and the other molests little boys. But they did not have to pay any consequences.

Answer 5

well.. federal law can be a funny thing... especially when it contradicts with state/local law... like in Oregon, I think it was, where they made medicinial weed legal...

now that's still against federal law though... so you could still be arrested... but only by federal agents I guess?

it gets kind of sticky

Answer 6

Ok, that would be "breaking" the law. Braking is for cars.
No, you don't get to choose what laws you want to break. My world would be so much easier if I could.

Answer 7

this administration does or just changes the law

Answer 8

You are not certain to 'pay' for your crimes ever. Even if convicted you may not have to do anything.
