You have to distinguish between personal views and the law or 
constitution.

Free Software is a personal view of this community, and so is the
question about the moral.

A law has to give much wider borders, in which more than just one
personal view can exist. Personal views are mostly always narrower.

Nobody wants to turn Free Software into a common law!
