Agreed. Your reasons and their appropriateness isn't my problem. Nor the cops' problem. Nor either lawyers' problem. Whether your reasoning justifies the crime, that's on the judge to set aside a verdict if a jury returns a guilty verdict.

I'll go one further and say that people who steal, claim it's for a noble purpose but run from the cops, didn't commit.
