This is crap. If the people can see that judges reach a reasonable conclusion from case law, legislation, or the Constitution, they will not object and will accept it.

However, if they see a political ruling from a judge, there will be protests. We are a free people and will not be ruled by oligarchs.

Sure, but one can see a political motivation in *any* ruling handed down. Don't like the SCOTUS ruling on social issues? Well then they're commie pinko liberals! Don't like their ruling when they side with business? Well then they were bought off by Big Business!

People see what they want to see, facts be damned.

Not so fast here, SCOTUS problem is they usurp the will of the people and congress..Scotus has now established law that at it's heart destroys the republic as described in the constitution..scotus has taken on gay rights and abortion and now lower courts are nullifying voters on social issues..SCOTUS acts like they will define what morality and the will of the people should be..THEY HAVE FAR OVERSTEPPED THEIR FUNCTION.
