Yes, like some folks are doing now through the courts and not through the "time tested" and intentioned legislative process. This leaves us with "judicial tyranny" warned against in the Federalist papers and in the "rule of the oligarchy" which is also warned against in many, even pre-American documents.

What about the folks who are imposing "their beliefs" on other folks of traditional beliefs? Are they "Mesopotamian War Gods" too?

I'm just as worried about the oligarchical rule of the country as you.

But if I'm being honest I don't think it's something we'll have to worry about for much more than a few decades. We're reaching a boiling point I think.
