It must be nice when life is so black and white, either/or, no shades of gray.

I see dodgy boxes like benefit fiddling, fare dodging, shoplifting or tax evasion - individually, each person isn't hurting me, but add them all up, and the people who pay taxes/bills end up paying more; I don't have an issue paying my bills/taxes, I have a serious issue paying other peoples.

Yes, I have committed minor illegalities (civil and criminal) in the past, but why should that stop me wanting dodgy box dealers/users, shoplifters, fare dodgers, etc, stopped? Are you saying that if anyone has committed any wrong, no matter how minor, they are not allowed to want other illegal acts not to happen?

btw, in answer to your questions, no/no/no.
