The Supreme Court pressured or influenced by the protests and the mob mentality: how can we possibly have justice?

Will the Supreme Court of the United States abandon the words of the Constitution or their meaning in favor of appeasing the masses? You have to remember that Supreme Court Justices are appointed therefore making it a political position. Similarly, lower level judges are often elected to office, and all of them are lawyers, so the politics game here should come as no surprise. It is unfortunate to see that our Supreme Court justices might give in to the short-term fickle thinking of crowds outside the court.

It’s amazing how powerful social media has become and how much noise and controversy it can promote with all its sound and fury. After all, things go viral pretty quickly among all the people who are “digital friends” almost to the point where they can sway not only public opinion and goad the media into bowing to their wishes, but also put pressure on politicians and even Supreme Court judges. This is quite unfortunate at times.

In fact, I ask; Is it true that the Supreme Court is being pressured or influenced by the protesters and the mob mentality? And what about all the “friend of the court” letters that are put forward to buttress the socialist theory that is, in fact, much of the foundation of ObamaCare? If something is unconstitutional, it doesn’t matter, or rather, it shouldn’t matter how many unemployed friends, protesters or lawyers with nothing better to do are sending “friend” letters to court.

There was a very alarming article in Reuters the other day titled; “‘Friends’ Line Up for Obamacare Supreme Court Challenge”, by Terry Baynes published on March 18, 2012, which read;

“So many friends. So little love. Such is the state of the amicus, or ‘friend of the court’, briefs that have piled up in the next US Supreme Court case involving ObamaCare. In all, Some 136 amicus briefs have been filed with the high court — that’s a stack about 2 feet high, or two carloads — that’s also a third more amicus briefs than were filed in the Supreme Court’s previous record for amicus briefs: two affirmative action lawsuits against the University of Michigan, decided in 2003.”

What else can we expect in this crazy world of ours? I’ll tell you what comes next, and it’s scary as hell. If the Supreme Court is going to give in to the wishes of the mass hysteria on FaceBook, Twitter and other social media and believe this is what our founding fathers had in mind; Power to the People. So we don’t need a Supreme Court, all we need is for everyone to vote online and move on. However, we have three branches of government to balance, and we have a Republic, not a pure democracy.

It is unfortunate that people cannot see the philosophical difference or why it exists. You see, it’s a good thing it exists, and it’s helped us become the greatest nation in the world. Should we just throw it all out because social media and activist lawyers want to rig the system? That is not what this great nation is about, nor what the Supreme Court is supposed to be. In fact, I hope you will please consider all of this and think about it.
