Makes me wonder if our glacial justice system in the US is intentional, to avoid this kind of thing.

There is plenty of commentary from the founders to indicate that. Judges are suppose to be above the "rule by mob" mentality. Choosing justices according to hot topic political views as we have been recently is directly counter to the whole purpose.

I'm sure that's a big part of it. Things like due process and jury trials are slow, but they're the best things we've got.
