Who the hell would think this is an ok sentence or the right thing to do?


Obviously some people think it's ok, laws are made by man you know  Tongue

All I'm saying is it doesn't matter how trivial you think your crime is, you just can't live the way you want while expecting life to go easy on you. The minute you do something, anything, you no longer have a say or choice, your past/reality already contains that action and any series of events unfolding from that point in time is completely independent of your plans or your idea of fairness. It's about taking full responsibility for everything you do. You can't for instance go to buy weed while ruling out the possibility that you might get shot. It doesn't matter that chances you get shot are less than 0.001%.

Any action is a testament to one's acceptance of the myriad of possible timelines stemming from that point.

Humans seem to have lost this primordial synchronicity with themselves. They do whatever they please but then are filled with regret or are shocked by the consequences of their actions.
