Pretty much. That's the old quote, right? It's Good vs. Evil. The Good Guys vs. the Bad Guys. The purpose of society's laws should be to punish and restrain the Bad Guys, and protect the Good Guys.

Although apparently not that old, it's only from 2018.

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition …There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect. Frank Wilhoit
