You cannot make men good by law

From Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis. Page 73
You cannot make men good by law.
Ain't that the truth.

Also you cannot make them polite by law.

Seems like 90% of legislation these days is trying to make people good and polite by edict rather than the hard work of crafting the hard policy which takes people as they are.
