While I would never advocate criminality, it would be poetic justice if
the SSIDs of all the justices who voted in favor of this SSIDs were

After all, it is no big deal, according to them.

My reading of it is that they didn't think it was "no big deal", it was
that the law *as written* didn't make it actually *illegal*.  In cases like
that, don't complain about the judge, complain about the legislative body
that wrote the flawed law.
Its funny how Judges will "legislate from the bench" when it suits
them or their keepers (or fraternity brothers, or college buddies, or
former law partners, or those making campaign contributions, etc)....
