‘The Wrong Message’
Your editorial on California Supreme Court Justices Rose Bird, Cruz Reynoso and Joseph Grodin is naive. They are on the court to interpret the Constitution of California. The voters under that Constitution periodically vote on whether or not they are doing this, as you say, “fairly.”
The California Constitution says clearly that certain murderers are to go to the gas chamber. These justices are clearly not implementing this law. The vast majority of voters have supported this law in the voting booths.
Many of us will therefore conclude these justices are, as you say, guilty of “gross incompetence,” and vote for their removal.
