I believe this is true about some laws, but not about all of them. What if there were a law that stated you could not comment in public about a candidate running for office. Can *anyone* doubt the constitutionality of such a law? Alas, in this era of lost common sense, some probably would think such a law was justifiable.
The only flaw in our form of government is that it requires a morally upstanding people to make it work.

I see your point, but that battle is not to be fought by law enforcement.
Okay, I can make exceptions. But the circumstances would have to be pretty severe and obvious, as in maybe not arresting a black man trying to vote in the Jim Crow days (not sure of the actuality of laws there, just trying to come up with an example). I don't think we're up to that level again yet.
