Let Me Speak to the Organ Grinder, Not His MonkeyEvery JUSTICE in That Clique Only Cares About "Just Us"Stare decisis is for RINOs.Lol so now you're arguing against centuries old stare decisis? Ya good luck with that.Stare decisis is for RINOs.Lol so now you're arguing against centuries old stare decisis? Ya good luck with that.
So what exactly do you think is the roll of the SCOTUS if not to exercise judicial review?
To resolve conflicts of jurisdiction. For example, if Texas bans flag burning, it could decree that the Federal government has jurisdiction over the Stars and Stripes, so Texas could only ban the burning of the Lone Star flag. SCROTUS couldn't declare the law unConstitutional based on its peculiar version of the First Amendment.
Not since the ratification of the 14th amendment and the incorporation doctrine through the due process and equal protection clauses.
But we, the people, could let SCROTUS interpret an act of Congress as unconstitutional only as a means of putting it on a national referendum for us to decide. The Justices' decision would not be final. Of course, practically all of their decisions are against the will of the majority. They only use their veto power when Congress has been pressured by the people to pass what doesn't fit into the Star Chamber's ideology.
the will of the majority does not trump the Constitution, only a RINO supports a tyranny of the masses; by your logic if there is a national referendum, to say, ban all guns then that would override the 2nd amendment, neither the Congress nor the masses can pass such a statute or referendum because luckily we have 3 separate coequal branches of government and the SCOTUS would strike that down.
If you say so. But it's not even you spouting that anti-democratic garbage. It's what your Masters tell you to say.
We, the people, are not included in their governmental Trinity, so it is nullified. You can make up all the scare stories you want in your bootlicking of the oligarchy, but it just proves how you desperately want to feel superior to the majority of Americans, which is treason. Your pathetic plutocratic propaganda piles up three layers of tyranny on us, the people.
We are a democratic republic under a federalist system that respects the will of the majority so long as it does not conflict with the inalienable rights of the minority we are not a democracy, democracy is mob rule, a tyranny of the masses.
