That is a good question. Well laws passed down by the government take care of some stuff; murder, theft, abuse, and the like.
The other stuff like abortion, premartial sex, and such that are not illegal are based on each persons ideals and beliefs (aka ethics) This is very evident in America, just look at all the discussions on abortion and such.
For the most part as a society we agree on some things that are not ethical, adultry, cheating, lying, and etc. Soem others are still being debated. That is how a society sets a broad moral compass.
It is still the individual itself that choses whether or not to go by those moral or follow their own.
Also most religions have about the same basic ethical standards.
People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.

Sorry bout that,
1. There's an old joke been going around Cailfornacation for years.
2. Its a knock on Texas.
3. I heard it from the local jerks when I lived there.
4. Went something like, don't remember actually.
5. "There ain't nothing but steers and queers in Texas, *something else*, where the men are men and then the sheep are nervous."
6. But what is really funny about hearing a person from Californacation telling it is the shear ironic idiocy of it.
7. Every body knows all the queers either are born there are soon move to Californacation.
