First of all, there was a vote and law makers were put in place by the will of the people.So you’re claiming a total Marxist dictatorship of the proletariat through the court system, and letting all the judicial and executive officers off from their oath to support the Constitution because the judges say it’s okay to enforce unconstitutional laws?It is the courts, courts read the law and says what is acceptable...
Then there is the supreme court, laws passed are subject to review by the Supreme Court, they are the people who say if a law is constitutional or not. They are the ultimate decision makers on what is constitutional or not.
That what decides if something is constitutional or not. Not everyone gets there own version of what is constitutional.
This is basic civics.
No its not.
The Declaration of Independence is pretty clear in saying that since government constantly tend towards corruption, that the people will periodically have to over rule corrupt government and start over on a regular basis.
The Declaration of Independence is pretty clear at saying that individual rights are supreme, above the elected or appointed representatives, legislative, executive, and judicial.
Even if the majority were to want something that abused even a single individual's rights, like slavery, it still could never be legal. If the legislators, executive, and judicial all want to do something that is illegal, it is still illegal and wrong if it violates basic rights. And that actually happens very often. The military draft is an example. The Civil War, WWI, WWII, the Korean War, Vietnam, the invasion of Iraq, etc., likely were all illegal since the US was not at risk of invasion in any of them. They were all based on lies and propaganda.
