<p>“If you addressing me Hunt, I was stating that underage drinking is illegal. I was saying that covering up the drinking is dishonest, IMO.”</p>
<p>I don’t think this is a good analogy.</p>
<p>Say you’re a homosexual in Saudi Arabia, or some intolerant country. </p>

<p>You cover it up. (Is the covering up immoral?)</p>
<p>Covering up for an act that an unjust law rules is illegal is not necessarily immoral. </p>
<p>The laws that prohibit cannabis consumption yet permit tobacco consumption are particularly hypocritical and unjust. Covering up the consumption is not immoral: you were simply evading an unjust law. </p>
<p>Your friend has flagrantly violated censorship laws in a certain country by expressing certain views. You don’t tell the authorities what he has done. Is this immoral?</p>
