I don't understand blaming this on Christians. There haven't been any new Supreme Court justices in a long time.
But ITA, the Court is selectively for states' rights. There doesn't seem to be a pattern. And as for the Constitution, that is selectively ignored at will by the Court. But the drift away from the Constitution, such as when the Court quotes international law to support its decisions, seems like it will be more frequent.
As for "forcing a 13 year old rape victim to get parental permission for her abortion"...let's see...crimes committed (child abuse, rape), to be followed by surgery (abortion)... getting parental permission is not unreasonable. After all, the same girl would need parental permission to have a tooth pulled, ears pierced, or get a tattoo, depending on the state. But the topic was medical marijuana.
