I hope that was a joke, because it's a terrible argument. You mean 
British subjects had no law (even when they were nasty, poor and short)? 
And if they did, but it was okay to break that law because there was no 
constitution in North America, does that authorize breaking current laws 
because one day there might be a New Constitution?
