The "mass population" does not "force the Supreme Court" to make any decisions.

What drove the Supreme Court to rule the way it did in Roe v. Wade? Was it new thinking in lawmaking and judging, were they trying to be controversial, or were they caught up in satisfying a popular or liberal desire?

Justice Brennan, as an autocrat of the first water, drove that execrable decision. He was not enforcing other people's ideas; he was driving his personal views into the Constitution. And that is precisely what no Justice should ever do.
