.......and in reply I say!:

lol. You can contest the _application_ of a law (which could easily be
the **** being referred to) anytime People have test cases, that if
they win, will set a precedent that decides how a lot of stuff is
applied in future. This happens a lot with tax. It also happens with
murder, if the accused can claim some new way that the process of
their arrest or trial was flawed.

When is somebody going to contest this sh-t in a court of law?

lol .... I don't know about the States, but here in the UK you can't
actually contest a Law, in a Court of Law The sole purpose of the Court
is to enforce the law.

The democratic process is the way laws are changed. By lobbying and voting,
or by direct action as in the UK "Poll Tax"
