"Everybody is equal, but some people are more equal than others,"

"It's nice to trust people, but it's better to control them."
~ Vladimir Lenin

An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law.
Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. wrote about this in his famous "Letter
From a Birmingham Jail".

Kangaroo courts decide what is legal or not all the time.
So do dictators, who act as judges for all the people.  Why
should they have any right at all to determine what is legal
or not?  Just because the decisions they make are backed by
others to enforce those decisions does not make anything
they do in compliance with the moral law.

Segregation was "legal" in the South for a very long time.
Slavery was also "legal" everywhere in the USA for a very long time.
That does not mean either was in compliance with the moral law.

Every individual has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws.
But few are courageous enough to do so.  Most folks fail to even
realize what an unjust law is today.

When you see a woman breastfeeding her child in public being
arrested for indecent exposure, do you step in and challenge the
officer who is making the arrest?  Nah.  Doing so would put yourself
in the position of getting yourself arrested - for whatever trumped
up reason the officer decides.

Article I Section 8 (what powers the federal government is granted)

Go ahead.  Read it.  It is quite short.

The focus is on -
* international relations
* issuing currency
* raising armies, navies
* calling forth the militia
* interstate commerce

The balance of power is left to the states.

Wheere does any judge in the USA get the power to decide
on matters outside those areas?  Only in his own mind.
That is your position - "only judges can determine what is
legal or not."

I say you are full of sh*t.

So does the US Constitution.

As well as The Good Doctor.
