I agree morally, practically if I'm at a crosswalk and the little white man is flashing on the light but the semi-trailor isnt even slowing down I can step out and assert my moral and legal right to cross the intersection or I can stay alive, might is right doesnt describe what the powerful party should do, it describes how the weaker party should view things
