As for “judicial activism…” The supreme court engaged in “activism” because they set a new precedent. That’s not a bad thing or a good thing. It just is. Nothing was found unconstitutional (sorry comment number 2), no laws were struck down BUT the courts set a NEW (incredibly handicapping to businesses) standard for determining disparate impact. Which is the definition of legislating from the bench. Like I said, this isn’t good or bad, it just is. And it’s a necessary role of the court.
