This is how rule of law works. It's not a popularity contest where you vote for the home team. It's an intellectual argument to establish what is a just outcome under the circumstance, for the individual and for the rule of law, and rule of law requires respect for and consistency with prior rulings on the same legal issue applying generally accepted legal principles.
If a law has problems the solution is for Congress to fix the law - out in the open in public where everyone can watch them do it [you know like Obamacare /s].
