Yeah...because its the same thing. Unlike the two you mentioned, Morgentaler had a choice to do things within the law to exact change, he didn't.

But as long as the end justifies the means we should be applauding a certain war in the middle east right?

Mogentaler has done a lot of good throughout his life, i will not disagree with that, but Im sorry that I dont want my counties highest civilian honor going to a convicted criminal and tax evader...I guess I just have higher standards than you.
