You need laws to stop you from being a shitbag, messing with other peoples' stuff?

The person you're replying to was also careful to say you are morally responsible. That has nothing to do with legal issues.

Sorry. Yes I agree that you can be morally culpable for it, but not legally. I didn't notice the distinction there.

I should also apologize. I was over-aggressive in my response. Just ticks me off to see a comment that seems like it's defending messing with property of others (which you actually didn't imply, but instead I inferred it).
