"It's the law" has never held much weight as an argument in my book. Why is it the law, and why has it been applied in this way?

It will when you're standing in a courtroom in front of a judge regardless of what's in your book. I'm not saying laws are always right, they clearly aren't, but to build a business on it and then be outraged when it gets shut down?
