“To bend to the will of the legislature is and should be called judicial activism,” the judge said.

So they're not supposed to follow the laws written by the legislature? WTF?

The wording is very confusing and I almost said something unpleasant to the writer. But I think he's on our side.

I think that what was meant was that it should be called judicial activism when a judge doesn't follow what the intent of the legislature is. At least that's what I'm interpreting. It is so poorly written that it makes it difficult to tell what point the author was trying to make.
