That's what the commenter is responding to. Laws are clearly not applied logically, and while you may be able to make that argument in court, it's never clear that it will be accepted.

I don't disagree, but I'm not making a defense argument in a courtroom, I'm making a logical argument about a proposed law on a message board. I agree laws are not applied logically which is why they must be scrutinized logically before they become laws.
- geysersam 3y ago> laws are not applied logically The logical conclusion of that is that we shouldn't have any laws... Except it's not true. Of course laws are not applied strictly accordingly to the laws of logic, nothing is, but there is a relatively high degree of logic and predictability in the legal system. That doesn't stop absurd rulings in some occasions. But from that concluding that "laws are not logical" is an overreaction.
