What would you say to the people who got arrested freeing slaves? The law is absolute eh?
Yeah, because underage drinking and speeding tickets really relate to slavery.
There were laws against freeing slaves. They broke the law, dumbass

I never knew of any underage drinking laws or speeding laws that were felonies either.
Yes, and in that time anyone who was dumb enough to whine that they got caught breaking the slavery laws was probably told to STFU and go to jail. They knew the risks. They broke the law. They got caught.
My point isn't that the laws are right or wrong - it's that people bitch up a storm about "crooked cops" and whatnot when they're caught breaking them. I don't care whether or not you believe in the law - you'd better understand the consequences of not following them.
"OMG I was speeding down the road at 90mph inside city limits and this CROOKED COP PULLED ME OVER OMFG!"
Shut up. Pay the fine.
"OMG teh pigs bust0r3d me for teh underage drinkin and smoking w333333333d!"
Shut up. Pay the fine.
"OMG i stol0r3d meh neighbours new Civic Type-R and joyrode it, and the cops tackled me when i tried to run BRUTALITY BRUTALITY!"
Shut up. Pay the fine.
