> Because they rule on the sprit of the law, not as it was written.

I feel like this attitude is responsible for the modern destruction of the rule of law.

It doesn't matter what the law says, the only thing that matters is vibes! And whether you play golf with the right government officials.

> You can't "Trick" them by saying "well technically this is allowed!".

The obvious problem being that sometimes it is allowed. And then do you want that being decided by democratically elected representatives and specified ahead of time so the public can know what's expected of them and of others, or decided ex post facto on the basis of feels and discrimination?
