Whenever the courts are involved, you win some and you lose some. The legal term for precedent is “stare decisis” ( as you well know). The term is in Latin because its a legal concept that has been around for more than two thousand years.
The highest court in the land SETS precedent as often as it “stands by things already decided.”
My point is that it has divorced itself from the foundation of natural law upon which their authority is based, and so therefore their dictates no longer have any moral authority compelling us to obey them.
And we should not do so if we can defy them without excessive bad consequences.
