Then strike down a narrow point, not the whole freaking thing! Gorsuch betrayed the rule of law, period.

Stop, take a breath and read what Gorsuch wrote. He did strike the law down on a very narrow point - the narrowest of all points possible. The law is so ambiguous that it fails to provide adequate notice as to what is required to steer clear of the law.

Nonsense.

Unless the law has a severability clause, you can't pick and choose bits to get rid of.

That's legislating from the bench. As I said before, I thought we were agreed that is a bad thing.
