Why is the 9th Circus Kort allowed to perpetuate this level of complete disregard for the Constitution?

Amazing
I think such jurists make a conscious choice to ignore the history of what it took to get the BoR passed after the USCon's ratification. (Many of the time, for example, were distraught that there would still be no religious test for office-holders, "...lest Turks, Jews and other Infidels" find their way into the new national government.) The 9th Circuit's composition is usually an embodiment of that selective allocation of freedom, as they've become an arm of the states where the infringements take place rather than a check on oppressive states. Pushing back against that is, alas, a task that doesn't go away.
