If the law follows the whims & passions of the people: we are through.
That's ridiculous, and it's sad that you think that.
Really?
For the same reason the USSC found that the Gitmo detainees (enemy combatants) have Constitutional rights. I want you to find where it allows such a thing under our Constitution.
What about Roe v. Wade. Please show me where the Constitution states that it falls within the fed’s purview to legalize abortion? I thought these decisions were mandated to the states.
What about the Kennedy v. Louisiana case? The liberal members of the USSC ruled it was unconstitutional to put a child rapist to death. A 5-4 decision. How is it our esteemed Justices, all reading the same Constitution, be split on such an issue?
What about their decision to undermine our free speech by upholding campaign finance reform?
What about the USSC’s ruling to allow local governments to seize private property for development of non-public use violating the 5th Amendment?
There are so many examples it should make you sick. What gives you any feeling the USSC will act in the best initerest of the people and more importantly, the Constitution?
PsyOps:
The USSC is not going to allow such a national crisis. If this were true through-and-through, without a doubt, they still wont touch it. They know what would ensue on our streets all over the country. They know people are very little concerned about the constitution.

I was responding to your comment that the Court would avoid a case because the outcome would be unpopular. That is ridiculous and sad. If you really feel that way you must be pretty jaded about the way our country is run. Even more so considering the balance of the Court these days.
Maybe I'm naive about the way the Supreme Court conducts its business, but I couldn't disagree with you more. I believe in the Court, no matter what it's ideological makeup and I have always thought of the Court as an effective check on the mob rules mentality.
Like I said, maybe I'm naive, but I hope you're wrong.
I'm sure everybody can find decisions that they feel are incorrect and it is pretty arrogant to think that just because you disagree with the decision that it is unconstitutional. But that wasn't even my point. My post that you quoted was:
