Last time I checked murder was illegal in the US, but carrying a sealed bottle of alcohol was not.

My problem is they chose to live in a country where most people do indeed consume alcohol, and to choose a profession that involves carrying people and their legal cargo.

If I was to move to another country, I would be sure to check out their customs before hand and make a choice; do the customs of that country offend me more than the benefits of moving to that country.

Let's say I wanted to move to a country, we will call it XYZ. And they have a custom of killing puppies by hanging them. (Sorry; just thought of something reprehensible to me.) If the benefits of moving to that country out weighed the puppy killing, and I decided to move there; I would certainly not get myself a job as a rope salesman.

Personally I cannot think of anything that out weighs the evil of the puppy killing, but that is also because we currently live in such a great country ourselves.
