Look at drug laws.... theyve increased both in scope and in punishment steadily and severely for decades, yet drug use hasnt declined. This is simply because the laws dont reflect the values of a great number of people.

so by that logic, drug use should be legalized.
The courts interpret the laws remember? That's why it's important for the SC Justices to be balanced and mindful of "the other guy," even if it's not their personal point of view.
As far as I'm concerned, I don't look at the individual's personal views, they aren't there to represent themsevles, but to represent the consituents that did vote for them.
