Did the "gay marriage" ruling "defuse" political and social tension, or did it exacerbate said tension? I think exacerbate. Did it "settle large differences" or did it cause them to become larger? I think larger. How about Roe v. Wade? Did it defuse political and social tensions, or did it exacerbate them? I think exacerbate. How about Dred Scott? Defuse or exacerbate? Brown vs. Board of Education (1954) languished almost completely unenforced in the Deep South until the passage of the Civil Rights Acts. I graduated from a segregated high school in 1970. So much for the Supreme Court as great "settler of large differences."
