If you live in a nation of laws, i.e. some form of functioning democracy, the people decide what is legal through their representatives, and this can change gradually as attitudes shift. The government is supposed to be an instrument of the people, not the other way around.

I assume the parent is talking about the USG spying on or murdering other not-US people, in which case the people of the US have more or less decided that's what they want.
