behaves in the manner of an ongoing constitutional convention, unilaterally
amending the Constitution almost at will. A majority of Supreme Court justices have, on
occasion, even justified the use of foreign law in interpreting the
Constitution.The application of customs, traditions and values that attach to foreign cultures and laws provides no legitimate insight into America’s Constitution and diminishes the contemporary role of the state and federal representative branches in writing America’s laws and amending (or not) the Constitution.The arbitrary application of foreign law—which provides and activist justice with an infinite smorgasbord of legal
options—is a rejection of the predicate for America’s governmental system.And it lasts only as long as the next opinion.
