As @Blake said, "breaking the law" just means going outside of the boundaries set by your rulers. For anything outside the law, your rulers dislike it, but the majority of people could actually like it.

Take going to the bar with black people as an example. You might be in a place where it's disliked by the ruling political elite, or in a place and time where it's fine. This is the legal/illegal view.It's sometimes quite different from the moral view of things. The same applies to other topics like should women be allowed to drive cars, or should drug addicts be allowed a safe source of drugs free from the influence of "very bad people"?

Please don't let political elites set your personal morality. They are professional liars ( that's how they became political elites) and they have no morality to offer you.
