IMO that is part of the problem. The courts often even bend backwards to follow the laws as written by the legislature rather than follow the constitution. You end up with insane interpretations, such as a federal law allowing prosecution of someone growing locally sourced pot seeds and smoking the product somehow being interpreted as interstate commerce.
Another utterly bizarre one is merely the act of walking within 1000 feet of a school with a gun in hand is considered interstate commerce under the gun free school zone act. No matter if the act of was completely devoid of commercial nature.
