I actually think, overall, that's a fair legal asessment. I do think that these rulings more than anything highlight the inability of our legislature to actually take any initiative to get anything done. For what seems like decades now, it seems that the legislative politicians point toward the court as a double edged sword that was the primary vessel that could either preserve or destroy certain rights, when, in reality, it is the primary function of the legislature to lay the groundwork for the Court's interpretation. That requires initiative, though, beyond seeking one's own political gain.
