If you break a law that you didn’t know was a law, should you be prosecuted to the full extent of the law?

Yes. Because ignorance isn’t an excuse. You need to make it your business to know if something is legal before you do it.

@SirenCalledLuce do you know if it’s illegal to drive with your high beams on for example?
@4thdimensiondream it’s illegal not to dip your beams if there is oncoming traffic in the opposite lane, as the glare may create an accident. Speaking as a U.K. driver 🇬🇧

@SirenCalledLuce I know that too but didn’t know if it’s an actual law. That was just an example. Thanks.

@4thdimensiondream I don't know if it's a law either but I don't do it because it could cause an accident, as stated above. Also like I stated, lots of laws are common sense. Most people don't have that though so..😆

Then you'd better never sing on a beach in FLORIDA while wearing a bikini.

Because that's against the law.

Although it's LEGAL to sing on the beach so long as you are NAKED.

Of course, being NAKED on the beach may or may not be against the law.

Please note that in some places in FLORIDA, it is ILLEGAL to be NAKED on a desiginated NUDE beach.
