7. If there isn't a law on the books to keep one's eyes open,
then should an Executive Branch department make such a rule to be enforced as law?

I often think that 'little guy cases' such as this point to much bigger problems in our country, but when they're brought some
people think they're frivolous; justice is rarely done in these cases, 'the right' attorneys didn't bring them in 'the right' courts, under 'the right' circumstances. When do little people ever get justice?

Wouldn't justice be to enforce the laws 'on the books', passed and agreed upon by legislators, who in turn were voted into office through honest elections?
