Identity - absolutely discernible by sense and in fact rooted in sense. How do you know that the law of identity is true, give me an example?
Non-contra..same as above. If I say that something is flying, and you say that it is not - we will be able to determine this by sense, and we will be able to determine that it is not both - and cannot be both, simultaneously, again by sense. Without sense, sure, why couldn't something be flying and not flying simultaneously? How would we know, and how would we know that it;s a problem to conceive of things this way?
(You aren't going to find a single logical statement that you won't be able to apply sense to, because that's how we figured out what the laws of logic were in the first place..using our senses to parse statements. There is absolutely no removing reason from sense, it's built out of it and depends upon it.)
Nevertheless, "sense perception" is not dependent upon those principles, our being able to use reason is dependent upon those principles (and as above, reason is derived from our "sense perception"). If some other universe behaved in some other way you're telling me that you think that sense perception would be impossible in that universe? Rather than, idk..just different?

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
