You misunderstood the question; it does indeed state that conventional laws do the protecting, i.e. of the weak. Natural Law?.....these are not human derived. Survival of the fittest is one example. This is my fault...I should havae been more specific.

I tend to disagree with your idea that wreaking havoc on the "survival of the fittest" theme automatically assumes that natural Laws are good. This is a jump in logic. The people building in the flood plane lack enough intelligence and will pass on this "quality" to their progeny. Survival of the fittest demands that these people "not pass on their genes". Conventional law is allowing the passage of a weaker lineage to the masses. What will time do to this equation?
