Precedent is always respected. That doesn't mean that it is always the deciding factor of a succeeding case. There are different factors, respected all, of which precedent is one. Your statements do nothing to help in this critical period.

Should the Dred Scott precedent have been respected?

Can you say for a fact that Roberts will vote to overturn Roe? The justice he is replacing did. So, why in the hell aren't conservatives demanding a sure thing rather than very questionable maybe?

It's very possible this nomination will move the court to the left.
