The Answer to Judicial Tyranny
Judicial activism, after all, is the practice of judges ignoring the law and deciding cases based on their personal political views. With the federal judiciary focused more on legislating social policy than upholding the rule of law, Americans find themselves increasingly governed by men they did not elect and cannot remove from office.

How do WE THE PEOPLE force judges to decide cases based upon the Constitution and not on their personal views.
It was the intent of the Founding Fathers that the US be a Constitutional Republic where the rights of the individual were basic and fundamental - how do WE THE PEOPLE force the judges not to transgress upon INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS? The rights to LIFE, LIBERTY, PROPERTY and TO PURSUE HAPPINESS.

It's not a courts job to interpret anything or attempt to determine legislative intent. Their job is to apply law, period end of story.
If a law is overly broad or its intent ambiguous, the courts job is to set aside the law and leave it to the legislature to fix it, only a legislature has the authority to write, rewrite or amend a law. It's time we demand the courts just do their job and nothing else.
I have been calling for Judicial reform ever since Newt Gingrich brought it up in 2012.
WHAT IS JUDICIAL REFORM
WHY CAN WE DEMAND THAT SCOTUS CONFORMS TO ARTICLE III
SCOTUS IS SUPPOSED TO BE AN IMPARTIAL ADJUDICATOR.
AS THOMAS JEFFERSON STATED , THE JUSTICES ARE SUPPOSED TO ACT LIKE "MERE MACHINES"
