So when someone breaks this preventive law, the whole society becomes the assailant, not the victim. The direct victim becomes shrouded amongst the constant political rancor. More preventive laws are offered to comfort the loss of the last deceptive law. The argument is made, that it is beneath an advanced society to be only reactionary towards misdeeds. That preventive laws are an advanced measure of security of future offense.
Preventive laws can include any measure of our daily lives.
With society being comfortable with one preventive law, it becomes easy for politicians to sway society towards more. Politics becomes an art of metaphysics, predicting adversity. Rather than the sensible of our society maintaining order. The only true method for law is enforcement after the act. It can be brutal, but that is why we call it a crime in the first place.
