Say we're talking about Nazi Germany so it's required to report Jews. If someone refuses to follow the rule does that make him an outlaw? Would you say he should follow the law? If he doesn't, in what sense is he different from my "I can murder whoever I want" example?
Yes, of course.
Not sure why my personal opinion is relevant, but he has the option of following the law or not.
At sufficiently high levels of abstraction he is not different. Once you descend to breathable altitudes, other interesting concepts like "harm" and "autonomy" come into play.
