Suppose the Supreme Court votes the wrong way and goes against the lower courts and rules against Heller.  Would you be in favor of impeaching the Justices that rule against gun owners and the Constitution?

Can they be impeached? They are appointed.

Yes, the only way to remove a judge is via impeachment. It was built into the system in the beginning as another check and balance to their power, much like the trial by Jury is a check on a judge's ability to find people guilty.

What are you going to charge them with?  My guess is that you'd have to prove that they knew that their interpretation of the Constitution was incorrect.

It's much easier than that. Put a couple of PIs on their trail, wait until the corrupt one's mess up with hookers or drugs, bribes or other shennanigans and them call the cops. Presto! no more bad judge.
