Once they're confirmed, nobody can predict any justices vote. We've been sold candidates as "conservatives" in the past only to find them swing way liberal on the bench. That's the trend. I don't know of any cases that were the reverse. Legislating from the bench is just a term.
Saying the 2nd Amendment is all about the national guard and that the right to privacy includes abortion on demand isn't necessarily legislating from the bench. It is simply a liberal interpretation of the Constitution. We may disagree, but what else is new? It's all a part of God's plan.
