So what is the difference... trick question?

Legal applies to act's and statutes and lawful applies to person's based on natural law.. IE: do no harm.?
Mick Parker
my understanding of legal & law... law is simple logical, a maxim with clear intent & purpose, Bring that simple clear truth/fact to a wordsmith & he'll interpret it into 10,000 words of confusion to suite a specific need.... a statute lol

LEGAL is a DIFFERENT JURISDICTION.
*sigh*
Mick Parker
law protects rights of man, legal protects rights of person? where possible the legal should reflect the law, but certain allowances given for the flow of commerce. kicking someone is a crime but if it happens during a soccer match, its acceptable.... like that?

"...and for greater certainty; that I CLAIM THE RIGHT to be governed by the jurisdiction of Anglo-Saxon-Jute common law, based upon 'The Golden Rule'-principle of "Do not unto others, as you would not have them do unto you. . . . .do, NO, harm.""
..whoever thought that up is fucking BRILLIANT
