The inherent transgression of the Ten Commandments

Gigi discusses how each commandment comes with its own implicit transgression. For example, the right to privacy implies the right to adultery and secret activities. The right to pursue happiness and possess private property can lead to stealing or exploiting others. The freedom of the press and expression of opinion can be seen as the right to lie. Furthermore, Gigi mentions the right of free citizens to possess weapons, which allows for killing. He emphasizes that the transgressions and the commandments are interconnected.
