Keith Olbermann suggested that states ignore the Supreme Court’s concealed carry ruling because the court has no mechanism of enforcement.
Olbermann tweeted:
It is possible that states could ignore the court’s ruling because the Supreme Court’s power is inherent. It only has power because we agree that its rulings are binding. The Supreme Court has no way to enforce its rulings, and if New York decided to ignore the court and continue to enforce their concealed carry law, there is zilch that the six Republican justices can do about it.
Ignoring the court would delegitimize it in the same way that Donald Trump tried to delegitimize Congress by attempting to get Mike Pence to refuse to certify the election.
Once states ignore the Supreme Court’s ruling, the United States is no longer a nation of laws.
Could states effectively dissolve the Supreme Court by ignoring it?
The consequences of such actions would be far-reaching and should be carefully considered because the impact could be the destruction of the constitutional system of governance, but Supreme Court reform should be on the table.
