QUESTION: Does anyone find themselves wishing that the Supreme Court had denied cert to Griswold v. Connecticut? Even if you agree with the decisions being made by SCOTUS and elsewhere (and I do, with some reservations, for the most part), I'm very uncomfortable with the position taken by most justices that they get the right to determine legislative intent (i.e., "what this statement in this particular law/the state constitution/etc really means is..."). Nothing good can come of that.
