For example, Justice Kennedy wrote of Texas v Johnson ‘The hard fact is that sometimes we must make decisions we do not like. We make them because they are right, right in the sense that the law and the Constitution, as we see them, compel the result.’. The vast majority of the work of judges…

Opposition continued to grow, and after many years, abortion gained more restrictions. In the Supreme Court case Planned Parenthood v.
