You were implying that because the judges exercised their "Free Will" as human beings in choosing not to decide, they've somehow made a legal ruling. That is what I was taking issue with.

The effects the same. If Congress makes a borderline unconstitutional law tomorrow, I think it’s as good as legal until a judge exercises his ‘Free Will’ and puts a stay on its implementation. They know this, and that’s what I think the lyric is referring to. No choice is a choice because it has a resulting outcome. (Who’d have guessed that a Rush lyric would settle this disagreement.)
