Russ, just for a point here, didn't I read that you are going to, or you have, a pool at your house. How would you feel if you came home and just a "few outsiders" were enjoying your pool?
I think the point is, if society keeps excusing some infractions in rules and laws - and just by the law of physics - this disregard we mirror to our children keeps snowballing into a much larger disregard for rules.
You may not raise a stink. But when the system of rules and laws get spoiled by a few bad apples, it is still rotten for people who follow the rules.
