Although I have little issue to take with abortion myself, I'd be fully willing to reverse the decision if placed in that role if the numbers swung the opposite way. When the public favors legislation at a rate of 2:1, best to assume your role as a public servant means just that, and not the servant of your own tastes, an ideology, or your faction's base.
@Keraunos Not saying that any of us SWeeps have any knowledge of the Constitution but the Justices should not consider public opinions when making a decision - they should only consider the laws of the land. Yes?
@SimplyTracie Probably, but everyone basically knows that not entirely what happens in practice. This would be [i]my[/i] private inappropriate motivation.
@SimplyTracie I like to think it's slightly less narcissistic than many other private convictions about this, but given my disregard of public opinion on a lot of other thing, it might just be dismissive laziness on my part.
