I have always thought that the SCOTUS should operate solely on their interpretation of the Constitution and not bend to public opinion, demonstrations, calls, letters, and any other form of coercion. I held this opinion back when people were demonstrating outside the court for and against abortion, for and against any number of hot social issues of the past few decades. If SCOTUS acts as they ought to -- not bending to pressure but rather interpreting the law based on the Constitution alone -- then a letter writing campaign is not necessary. IMHO, of course.
