Based on this write up - which leaves a lot of gaps (and that may not be NBc-s fault if the court didn't offer explanations) - the courts got this right.

A vaguely worded law is a bad law and should not be upheld.

Agree.

Did you ever notice how the far-left progressives on RallyPoint (I've yet to see moderates or those on the right do it) complain about the court being corrupt, far-right extremists, bigots, or any of the normal responses they have in conversations, when the Supreme Court rules against whatever pet ideology they have?

But if that ruling favors one of their pet ideologies, then it's "Glad to see they are doing the right thing", "Right and proper decision", and so on.

The concept that they look at each case and decide what's Constitutional instead of what's in line with their ideology (well, for at half of them) seems to be beyond their grasp.

SFC John D. to be fair, (and this is just an example), conservatives were griping for DECADES about activist judges ruling according to ideology in Roe v. Wade.

There is a legal concept called "void for vagueness." If a law is widely open for interpretation (e.g. banning "lewd" displays without defining what constitutes lewdness) such that an average citizen cannot reasonably predict whether or not a given action is legal, the law is unenforceable and should be stricken.

SFC Casey O'Mally Its so unfortunate that average Americans do not realize what constitutes “lewdness” these days or what is highly inappropriate to the mental health of young people. [[But then, mental health and morals are being redefined by today’s pundits and cultural engineers ].
When do the boundaries defining societal laws become unsustainable ?
