Has your supreme court not made terrible decisions that anyone with half a brain can see are unconstitutional? For example Schenck v. U.S in 1919.
yes but scheck was a socialist who was advocating non-intervention in WWI and non-violence, that's why he was jailed for protesting the draft. But this precedent was overturned in Brandenburg v. Ohio (1969) when a KKK leader demanded his rights be protected when he gives hate speeches about killing jews, blacks, etc. SO you see the supreme court always makes the right decision in the end
