[quote:Anonymous Coward 1177210:MV8xMjkyNTg0XzIxMTQ2NDAxX0Q2RENERTgy] Most people get the idea of Karma wrong even those who should no better. Who you are is a result of past Karma (desires, actions, etc...) and who you will be will be a result of your present actions and desires. Time and place is incidental. As an example: say you are assaulted by someone in the street. The assault may have nothing at all to do with your karma but it will have everything to do with your assailant's past karma. Your reaction to the assault, however, will affect what you are in the future. So should you turn the other cheek? Up to you. But some consider that if you offer the fruits of any activity to the divine then you incur no karma for the deed. [/quote]

I feel that the lines of right and wrong can become blurred... things are not black and white, but often a shade of gray.
Further, just because the government says that a substance is illegal I do not feel that someone has done wrong in distributing said substance (i.e. marijuana).
To get to my question, interested to hear the GLP users comment on whether it is ever justified to onto another as they have done onto you...
