I don't think you understand what the Supreme Court does - if the Constitution is amended legally, they have no say in whether or not the new law applies, they are only empowered to interpret and clarify it. For example, the amendment that enforced Prohibition of alcohol was overturned by a later amendment; overturning the 2nd could be done in exactly the same manner and the Supreme Court could do nothing.
