That is not a very good argument, akin to " 'Salads are healthy' is something Hitler would say". And? Since when someone despicable uttering something invalidates what was said by contamination, taken so out of context?

My point is that arguing that "society has the right to change the rules" is not an argument that any particular rule change is a good idea. Many rule changes have been both brutal and catastrophic.
