In your assessment of your role, do you take into account the more general societal goals, or do you not see that as part of your responsibility?
The Criminal Code is a moral document. It's supposed to be an expression of the morality of the nation, and when it changes, that's because of a change in the morality of the nation. Part of the goal of the Criminal Code is to punish people who have violated the mores of our culture and have hurt people in doing so. Is it your job to consider that at all?
