All laws are broken.

I am referring here primarily to legislated law. It could possibly extend into mathematic/physical laws but I'm not concerned so much with that angle this time around.
At first I was going to claim all laws are made to be broken but I think in this case less is more. If people didn't do what you didn't want them to do you wouldn't have to tell them not to do it. It seems ridiculous to me that we build a system that would tell people they are not allowed to do what we know they're going to.

The law of gravity is unbroken. The relativistic versions of Newton's laws of modion are unbroken.
Those aren't really the types of laws the claim is referring to.
I'm not sure if I agree yet. But I would like it if 1) your claim were true; and 2) there was a law passed that all laws must be broken.
w/r/t laws passed by governmental bodies, most laws are passed after someone haw already broken them. Apparently, in San Francisco, it's against the law to spit on meter maids. Makes you think . . .
I'm not exactly sure what about, but it does make you think.
