That isn’t the role of the court but it has become its role repeatedly.
The simple fact is, with that kind of attitude, 5 people who never face election have the power to make any decision they want to make, without facing any repercussion.
Currently liberals have virtually abandoned passing legislation that would outlaw handguns… but that doesn’t mean they have given up. Instead, they wait for the day when 5 members of the U. S. Supreme Court will outlaw handguns.
Liberals will appoint justices that think their job is to advocate for various groups. That IS NOT what the court is supposed to be about. It is about making sure the law is legal. Nothing more.

Amen.
Jay Sekulow likes to say, "Winning at the Supreme Court is easy, all you have to be able to do is count to five." We are fortunate right now to have 4 conservatives and Kennedy who after several years of being on the liberal majority seems to be more inclined to vote with the conservative justices.

This is one of the most interesting cases I have heard in a long time.
