Morality, yes. But, in some cases, the law reflects basic moral
issues
which
continue to be important to people.

Associating written laws with morality does you a disservice.
There is no connection.

Some laws exist to guide the perpetually stupid. Otherwise, such
people
could not figure out, for instance, that it's not good to make
outrageous
noise at 3:00 AM when your neighbors are trying to sleep.

Laws don't change behavior, they only assign a penalty after the fact.
Its all about money for the state.



True, but if you can use the law to aggravate the hell out of a bad
neighbor
at least as much as he's aggravated you, then they serve a purpose.

I've got better things to do than play with man-made constructs to bother
other people.
