Culture Propriety Is the Basis of Freedom When “obedience to the unenforceable” falls by the wayside, expect both disorder and tyranny to take its place. (Photo by Andrew Harnik/Getty Images) It is by no means uncommon to hear someone reply to criticism of his conduct by saying that there was no law against it. This is a sinister reply, at least implicitly, for it suggests that what the law does not forbid is permitted in all other senses: in other words, that the law provides the sole criteria by which we are to judge our conduct.

According to the article, what happens to society when "obedience to the unenforceable" is lost?
When these self-imposed standards fall by the wayside, the author predicts that both disorder and tyranny will take their place.

On a Tuesday evening, we dropped our children off at my grandparents’ house and, after packing our things for the morning, decided to head to the local bowling alley.
