Exactly. Sexual relations between adults is rarely illegal but most people have issues with it between subordinates and leaders in a company, etc. Often documented in company policy or other things, so it’s against a rule, but not illegal.

Same with various forms of cheating - adultery is illegal in some states; but not all. And even then rarely prosecuted.

Yes, and those rules are enforceable contracts with penalties for breaking clauses in those contracts.

I want to know why, if those penalties are insufficient, is it better to join a mob than to petition the parties drawing up those contracts for stiffer penalties.
