The Bible clearly teaches this principle.
Stop worrying and being paralyzed to the point of inaction by fear about what is (or is not) "legal" and do that which is RIGHT !
If God be for us, who or what can stand against us!?!
"There are no people more foolish and despicable than those who will not resist tyranny when it comes, for they are complicit in the spilling of patriot blood and guilty of making unfortunate slaves of their own children."
