Law making bodies are responsible for all consequences of their legislation whether they are intentional or not. They are the ones in charge so the buck stops with them. Make better laws.

With this line of logic, you give absolution to anything immoral that is actually legal, saying the state should have done better.
That sounds like somebody familiar with compilers and interpreters, applying the same logic to law. That reasoning is flawed.
