In this post from the other thread, you posed a question as follows.

Dang, I was close. So do you feel that the ends justify the means?
He seems to have repeated illegal trespass (along with implied breaking and entering) after the guilty decree from last summer at Bill Reels Stake Center.
posting.php?mode=quote&f=1&p=1162765You are asking me if I think (feel) that the ends justify the means. I think in some cases yes, some cases no. I don't know what specific means you are referring to.
Are you talking about Norton trespassing and/or making recordings to expose the inner or hidden workings/processes in the LDS Church?
Again, that depends on the risk vs benefit of whatever activity is under consideration.
I refer to you to the Heinze dilemma developed by Kohlberg that I mentioned in a previous discussion.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz_dilemmaI think that in the case of recording something like whathisname's court of love, the risk outweighs the benefit.
I think that in the case of recording a lesbian porn flick the risk to others, particularly those that comprise vulnerable populations (mentioned by me previously on this thread) is far greater than any in-your-face benefit in essentially sticking it to the LDS Church.
My current series of responses here should take care of what you were asking about.
Once again, I cannot comment on whether or not my assessment of Norton has changed since he apparently decided against the lesbian porn flick. I would note, however, that having high levels of empathy does not rule out anyone making a dick move like fliming porn and essentially desecrating a house of worship.
I have high levels of empathy myself. I've made tons of stupid moves. One does not exclude the other. So far as I am concerned, we are all flawed human beings.
