Yeah, I agree that that's fighting the law outside the system. I don't think it's different from robbery in the same way that fighting the law from within the system is, I think they're similar in that regard. They're different in that robbery commands nearly zero popular support, making it a bad candidate for change through civil disobedience.

true, short of Robin Hood there's not much of a positive example of roberry as civil disobedience.
