If you take a long enough look at our laws you'll eventually figure out that people are just stupid. It's the same people when you think about it. A judge has no more a rational or intelligent grasp on the world than Amalek. Lawmakers are even worse. Constituents are the youtube commentors of the political system.
In the end we use a system just as dysfunctional as an internet forum to decide when and where people with guns get to shoot at other people who also may or may not have guns.
