    So Mexican authorities should stop enforcing the law?

    Do you think that in order to deliver him to the US he didn’t commit multiple crimes? Should Mexico grant him amnesty?

      No, of course not. He shouldn’t have broken the law. That will always remain wrong, and it must be if we want to enjoy an orderly rule-based society.

      But at the same time… I’m glad it happened.

        “The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread.”

        Not particularly applicable to this case, just a reminder not to get used to the taste of polish.

            I’d say it’s more like it’s wrong to pretend that laws are what separates man from beast and order from chaos when laws are only loosely correlated with morality, and everyone’s personal preference on order vs chaos is different anyways.
