My position is that centralization of rights adjudication in the Supreme Court is very bad, regardless of whether incorporation is complete or partial.The Supreme Court is not the final arbiter of rights interpretation. The people are via the jury system. It is the right and obligation of every juror on every trial in the nation to judge the law for compliance to the constitution at the same time as they judge the facts.
This concept of jury nullification was basic to the design of our national government by the founders.

Excuse me, haven't you heard of the judge over riding the jury as has been happening lately? Even conducting a trial by jury is coming under attack.
