Breaking the law

Sometimes in certain circumstances it is ok to break the law. Sometimes there is necesity for someone to break the law. In our constitution their is a section that states that it is sometime necessary for the average citizen to cast off laws that are unjust and to rise up against an oppresion that the government may cause. This is in the US Constitution so basically it is saying that though you should gollow the law if you can feel in your gut that something is wrong you shoul do something about it. People can make much better choices than a law could ever. One instance I can think of where breaking a law would be a good thing to do is if your at your hosuer and someone breaks in. If a bad person is holding you or your family hostage I thorughly believe that if you have to harm them to protect you or your belongings then you are well with in your rights to do so. This is a sort of legal gray area as you can defend yourself. So I dunno if it is technically breaking a law but I personally think either way you are within in your own rights. I personally think that something have gotten rediculous 2 hundred years ago if you were caught killining someone then you were put to death for it. If someone killed someone else in self defense then that was ok because the other person ahd it coming to them. That is the easiest thing I can think of where you would be within your own rights to kill someone else or to break the law. Im sure there are plenty of other things that are jsutifiable and have a legitimate reasoning behind them
