I wonder what the argument being made here is…

Is it that since killing cougars is legal in Idaho, then he shouldn’t be penalized? That’s a fair argument. But if that is the standard, then how about this scenario?

He took his wife on vacation to Morocco, and on a whim beat her to within an inch of her life. Which is legal in Morocco as long as the marks don’t last longer than 6 months. And indeed her injuries were fully healed within 6 months.

Or should the standard be that he/we should act within the paradigm of our accepted and legal behavior, whether or not we are currently within the jurisdiction of our immediate societal group? Especially as a leader of that group?

Just thought I’d stir the pot 😯
