So what's your point about activism? Cannoli Send a noteboard - 11/02/2022 10:54:21 AM

I remember a time when some board members here used to ramble on about judicial activism, and sticking to the text of the Constitution.

After the recent order from the Supreme Court, would these folks like to prate on a little more about these values? Or is the hypocrisy too much even for them to bear?


Where is the hypocrisy? What text of the Constitution does this violate? Basically, the Supreme Court is telling the District Court not to interfere with the decision of the elected officials of the state. The Constitution gives the power to determine things like this to the states, not the federal courts.
