It doesn't have to boil down to an argument of "are you going to be the test case". That isn't what the point is. The point is the founders including guys like Jefferson never intended the SCOTUS to be the final word on whats constitutional.
States and even individuals were supposed to be a check on that.
How things change isn't only by following the law. Ask Rosa Parks. Ask all those during prohibition periods. Education, discussion, people learning how it ought to be not just how it is, when enough people realize this than maybe they would be courageous enough to change the law or to out right nullify it.
It is fairly insulting to say the opinion of someone is worth squat, especially when it was shared by many of the creators of the law being discussed.
