try it next time you go out.
Try reading comprehension courses, and being less disingenuous in your posts. The point I'm making is clear, you don't need a specific law to combat every manner of violation. For example, most traffic laws (moving violations, speeding, stuff like that) could be boiled down to reckless driving. They aren't because it's tougher to prove that than it is to say someone was x amount of miles over the proscribed limit. They do so because they have to prove these things in the courts.
In the NBA, you only see that kind of specificity on the court (where people are held very much accountable at all times). There probably isn't a list of words Kobe isn't allowed to say near a microphone, but they fine him anyway. This is clearly a matter of difference of degree. In none of the other examples given did the situation stack up.
