The fact that a supreme court justice is something people would riot over is exactly what is WRONG with the court.
Frankly, I’m tired of OUR justices trying to legislate from the bench. I would like a supreme court that errs always on the side of striking down laws and allowing the politicians to fix them if they want. That way, we the people still have a sense of control over our lives.
Whenever the court RULES a new law or regulation into place, they erode our system, and disempower people, which is how you end up with armed revolution. The beauty of democracy and freedom of speech is that the people can vote out of office the tyrannical leaders, and vote in people who support the majority.
The beauty of the constitution was that it was supposed to protect the minority from the tyranny of the majority.
Needed to be said louder.
Apply this to the entire Federal Government. It was never supposed to have the scope/reach into our everyday lives that it currently does.
