Do you think all laws **stopped** at the Constitution or do you believe the Constitution still allowed people to vote in representatives who are allowed to make other laws as needed for safety and peace?

"Do you think all laws **stopped** at the Constitution or do you believe the Constitution still allowed people to vote in representatives who are allowed to make other laws as needed for safety and peace?"

All laws are subject to be scrutinized by the SC to determine their constitutionality. Have you taken and passed any US history course anywhere at anytime? We were taught this process in 7th grade civics class.

Moreover, the SC, according to our constitution is obligated to determine the constitutionality of any law so challenged in it's court. According to some constitutional scholars, the court has been known to err. Take Roe v. Wade for example...many today continue to argue that the Roe v. Wade decision was unconstitutional. Since they correctly believe that such matters should be left to the individual states as laid out in our Constitution.
