Then their constitution sucks.

It might not. It looks like 5/6 high courts ruled it unconstitutional and this is the only one not to, with the supreme court next.

That’s a good point. It could really be that just this court sucks.

I feel that it seems pretty important that human rights be codified and open to interpretation.
