Refers to the human race's unwritten legal code ("The System") that exempts dead people from being responsible/punishable for unwise or offensive action.
Thanks to the rules of the immune system, dead people cannot be blamed or caused to feel regret for prejudiced remarks, as is shown in the following infamous comic conversation from television.
Achmad the Dead Terrorist: I would not kill the Jews... I would just toss a penny between them, and watch them fight to the death over it! Or in the case of a couple Catholic priests, I would toss in a small boy!
Jeff Dunham: Stop it, Achmad! You can't be telling racist jokes on my show! It offends people!
Achmad the Dead Terrorist: Well, I'm already dead, so what do I care?

Achmad the Dead Terrorist: SILENCE!!! I KEEL you!

A law dat prevents someone from hollering about a gate's being left unsecured if said closable barrier has been in said undone state for a long period of time.
As often as James Herriot had vehemently reminded Farmer Ripley about the broken gate that kept causing him injurious grief every time he had to open or shut it, there is little chance that said lazy farmer could bring a door-laches claim against said hapless country-vet for his indignant and aggravated protests regarding said deteriorated barrier.

To refuse to take no for an answer when requesting a loan/handout from others (i.e., asking them to "open their purses").
I have totally given up on "loaning" money to the local moochers ('cuz they seldom pay me back --- duhhh), but some of them are surely purseistent in continuing to ask me, anyway.

Tim Da Toolman built a new house in an attempt to prove how professional a handyman he was, but stuff kept falling off and coming loose right and left when it was being inspected afterwards, and so this showed that Tim had not actually done a very good job with his fitting and attaching; most likely the house's latches and hinges hadn't been secured very well, either, and so the doorability of those installations was probably questionable, also.
