Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia is now a dissenter of the Supreme Court itself. After the 5-4 ruling on Friday that states same-sex marriage is constitutional in all 50 states, Scalia has called out the SCOTUS as threat to democracy – that the Court has become the ‘rulers’ of all Americans.

These people are to interpret laws not make them……
Yes they are!!
YES. Justice Scalia is correct!
Duuuuhhhhh
“REPUBLIC” Not Democracy
“It is a very dangerous doctrine to consider judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions. It is one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy.”- Thomas Jefferson
“The Constitution…is a mere thing of wax in the hands of the judiciary which they may twist and shape into any form they please.” “It has long been my opinion, and I have never shrunk from its expression…that the germ of dissolution of our federal government is in the constitution of the federal Judiciary; working like gravity by night and by day, gaining a little today and a little tomorrow, and advancing its noiseless step like a thief, over the field of jurisdiction, until all shall be usurped.”-Thomas Jefferson.
“At the establishment of our constitution, the judiciary bodies were supposed to be the most helpless and harmless members of the government. Experience, however, soon showed in what way they were to become the most dangerous…”- Thomas Jefferson
The last two SCOTUS opinions issued bear out Jefferson’s frustrations into the 21st Century.
PPACA aka Obamacare & the continuing attack on words and meaning (see the S. C. Rogers Theorem) And the continued onslaught against marriage and the family.

The last two major SCOTUS *Opinions are simply wrong.
The SCOTUS has issued plenty of wrong *Opinions before.
What power does the SCOTUS actually have?
“I write separately to call attention to this Court’s threat to American democracy,” Scalia said.
“This practice of constitutional revision by an unelected committee of nine, always accompanied (as it is today) by extravagant praise of liberty, robs the People of the most important liberty they asserted in the Declaration of Independence and won in the Revolution of 1776: the freedom to govern themselves.”
