Can you think of a valid situation where the ends justify the means?

I take the question to mean doing a wrong to produce a right , Sure it could be interpeted as legal / illegal , but in psychology sense it's all about whats ultimately right not legal.When a guard tells the house that a new inmate molested a child, and the inmates beat him to death with shower shoes!
That being said the only time I could justify doing wrong would be to change a major portion of societys rule/law . to bring about a more free life , hopefully free of a tyrant
Like obama (and recent former presidents) is illegaly ruleing by executive orders , Issueing another executive order to repeal those illegal ones is illegal and even wrong on some level , but may be nessay

Exactly! One man condems another to death by way of inmate! Was it right for one man to expose another, subsequently ending his life , While bringing justice to the victim?

idk, but i think this is a bit of a silly question to ask on a pot forum of all places, where 80% of us are growing in defiance of federal law to save money, or to get a better product, or what ever reason why you grow..
so yes, of course there are times when the end justifies the means.. and like someone else said, civil disobedience if also another great ex. imvho..

OK, so sometimes they do, sometimes they don't.
So what distinguishes between the two? What is the defining factor in deciding if they do or not?

is a law just? take for instance growing weed.. of course any weed grower thinks that the illegality of cannabis is a silly law, therefore they, i, don't have any problems breaking it..
same for pretty much any law one feels is unjust.. only the person breaking it can answer for themselves if they feel it's unjust or not though..
