No, we; that's what democracy is for, we evolve and over time, the law catches up as the common morality evolves. Or do you really think slave owners deserved their money because it was made legally? That was your argument, that legal means they deserve it, stand by your argument.

And "we" decide laws. I'll stick to those.

I didn't say you shouldn't, I just said being legal doesn't make something just; that's a fact.
