There is no morality. There are only values and power.
Most people don't kill babies because they don't want to kill babies.
There are people that do want to kill babies and there are people that want to do other things destructive to society.
Sometimes they do those things.
Sometimes they get away with it.
If 'morality' does nothing to stop them then it is valueless to me. You can keep it to yourself.
I'll keep my values and my guns and if someone comes after me or my family I'll shoot the people coming dead because I value my family.
It's as simple as that.
