I have to admit that this have irritated me. It seems sometimes that people makes moral statements based on local laws and then think that people should automatically agree with their moral opinion. I think that it would be good if all moral discussions would be disconnected from what the law in a certain countries says. The discussion should be about what we want the moral and laws to be and for that it is wrong to just say that something is wrong just because it is illegal.
