It was a tongue in cheek response, but since you asked:

It's a personal decision. What are you willing to do to protect human rights and liberties?

Some options include - informing friends and family, calling elected officials, protesting, refusing to pay taxes.

informing friends and family

I do my best.

calling elected officials

I've never tried that, but it's probably worthwhile.

protesting

You want to be arrested?

refusing to pay taxes

You want to go to prison?

I won't do any of those things for the sake of a bunch of criminals. There are legitimate reasons for breaking laws, but NO ONE has yet presented me one for this case. I say let unrepentant criminals stay imprisoned until they demonstrate their willingness to respect the rights of others.
