This stance is the result of a strongly held conviction that there is a moral foundation to the law, but that the law can be subverted from that morality to be used to spread injustice the same way any tool created by man can be used for an immoral purpose.
Under what circumstances is it acceptable to spread injustice or to be used for an immoral act? None.
The moral foundation is exactly that; a foundation based upon absolutes and morals.
Murder is always wrong. That is an Absolute. This does not mean that killing in self defense is wrong.
The founding fathers understood this concept better than the majority of modern Americans. Absolutes and morals are the basis for the Bill of Rights.
