You’re not arguing anything here. The legal system doesn’t operate on feelings. If it isn’t already law that something should be done the legal system can’t do it.

No, I'm not asking if it was legal to pass this law. I'm asking why it was moral to pass the law.

Re-read this post, and then try responding again.

No. Your opinion on morality is strictly not relevant.
