The left will not “obey” the courts. They have spent decades constructing the courts as their personal branch of government. If a ruling is in conflict with their goals, they will simply balk and consider it a fluke of no serious consequence. The left owns the courts. The courts were left’s path to rapid installation of an agenda that would have been impossible to legitimately achieve through legislation and support from voters. A contrary ruling is a motivator to the left to increase control over the courts—remember, the left was only one vote from erasing, in effect, the 2nd amendment human right from the Constitution.
There is insufficient public pressure to demand the left comply with contrary court rulings. The left knows it is in the driver’s seat and can do what it pleases. The situation for American freedom is far more dire than it may first appear. The legislative and judicial branches have no real loyalty to the Constitution, the concept of freedom, or even to basic human rights. Soon, there will be no voice whatsoever for the average citizen. Especially tragic in this process has been the shift away from the rule of law to power by a few leftist activists placed in strategically important positions in the courts. Representative government replaced with government by individuals. This is a very important lesson from the Heller decision aftermath. Those Americans who believed the Constitution and its affirmation of freedoms mattered should now see that this is no longer true.
And, you pay dearly for it.
......., governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.” ..........it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
Thomas Jefferson, 1776.
