"Is there a systemic fix?"

I think the only answer is to charge those who issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples with fraud and conspiracy and replace them with clerks who know how to use a dictionary. They are not required to 'go along to get along' on this issue, in spite of the court's illegal move in re-defining the word, 'marriage.' The court doesn't have the authority to re-define an already legally-defined word to suit their prejudices.

The more important issue here is stopping judicial activism in its tracks.

That's my point. There seems to be a need for a better check on the judiciary. Civil disobedience is not a viable systemic fix. It's actually a question for the architects of the system. What Would Madison Do?

If Congress would step up, this would not be necessary. It's too politically expedient to kick a controversial issue to the courts, though.
