Agreed, but I'd rather see people take responsibility for those whom they elect, rather than rely on activist judges to straighten things out.
When it comes right down to it all that holds this nation together is the moral conscience of the total sum of citizens. By that I'm not specifically using a religious context but rather they know what is right and wrong and willfully choose accordingly. In some shape or form all judges either answer to the conscience which if they do as much usually at least produces good results, or others ignore it and seek to manipulate the citizens for monetary gain and illicit power to enslave us with it.
Any judge on any bench must use common sense when applying an opinion of the court upon the public. Far too many judges ignore the founders beliefs and principles they incorporated into their private and public lives. The results being some of the most damaging rulings this nation has known since it began.
I rather see honest mistakes made by honest judges doing what they see is in the spirit of the founders recorded intent than the mayhem that has prevailed when they haven't. No judge is beyond personal prejudice so the best you can hope for is to learn what those actually are and if those prejudices will produce tyranny.
Two judges can say what they believe the Second Amendment actually means for example. The words as written and word master Noah Webster signed to mean mean just what they say. But I can also read their records and letters and know beyond a reasonable doubt an armed public is the vanguard against tyranny. Both sides or the issue will swear they are following the Constitution. Therefore you must look at the appointed judges history to understand their leanings.
You will find that many Liberals will refer to judges who are pro-gun ownership as activist judges. Actually both political parties are far to liberal for my liking. Neither Dems nor GOP is a bit interested in following the Constitution as a party platform & policy. It shows in their voting records. Well I better get out of here before I get the boot.... again :>}
