What has the Court done, and why? The Court has read into the First Amendment a meaning foreign to the thought and experience of the framers of the Amendment, and to the condition of the States for which the Constitution was written. Since their decision can not be justified by proper exegesis of the Amendment nor by the historical context in which it was set, we can only come to the conclusion that the Justices' own prepossessions and value hierarchies determined the decision. It was their personal philosophy and bias which determined their answer, not a legal or constitutional principle. - p. 27.
