We differentiate between 'illegal' and 'unethical'. Strongly.
1) We're not inherently against performing illegal acts, so long as it's for a good cause and we're also willing to deal with the consequences. (For example, civil disobedience.) But that hinges on the person who's "driving" at the time, getting approval from everyone else first.
2) If one of us does something unethical, or takes that illegal action without the consensus of the group, that's different. We're not capable of kicking people out, but the massive loss of trust would be painful all around. Which is why we don't. We would still deal with the consequences of that action as a group, but any penalties in the external world would be very secondary.
