@davetroy - There is most definitely a law that enshrines it. It's the law of "fuck you, I'm winning."
This law transcends all political, geographic and cultural boundaries. It governs all people and all nations equally.

Don't like it? Then take to the streets and be prepared to set up consequences for all conservatives. Not just the easily convictable ones.

Americans can keep hesitating or they can manifest politically. Even if it is a little economically inconvenient and socially awkward.
