By that logic, there’s virtually no end to the sorts of illegal behaviors we could justify on account of our distaste for something or other. I could justify stealing due to my hatred of those aspects of capitalism that I personally disagree with.
I might think that, since food and water are basic human necessities, charging for them is immoral, and that I should not be required to pay for them. And it is my moral right to simply walk into the grocers and eat or drink whatever the hell I want.
