Incidentally, that is why we have a republic, not a democracy. Our founding fathers were justifiably terrified of the idea of a majority deciding to disenfranchise a minority. Which is why we have courts that are supposed to say "um, no, sorry, you can't do that". Which is what happened. It's a fairly logical approach, really.

I loathe the comments I've read about people saying "if a judge can undo this, why do we even get to vote". Honestly, if you understand the US government that poorly, I really wish that you'd *stop* voting, as you have no idea as to why we have a constitution or a judicial system if you say something that idiotic.
