Both are correct. Most humans are honorable, but the damage done by the few who are not is so disproportionate in scale to their numerical strength that a society is lost if it does not aggressively bring its worst impulses to heel.

The universe tends toward disorder. Order requires many times more effort than disorder.

An orderly society requires many times more people to buy in to its precepts than the number of disorderly people needed to make a bad society. Once a small segment of a society no longer buy in, disorder follows fast.
