Actually the judge has a burden to follow the law. And if what the voters want exceeds the legitimate authority of the government, then the whole system is screwed and we have oppression. We've got people voting to steal from other people.

We've end up with 2 wolves and a sheep voting on what to eat for dinner. At this point, the only option is to have a violent revolution. This does not violate the N.A.P. because it is fighting in your defense, not for conquest, and not to take what belongs to others.
