    Hey everybody, don’t speak up or out until your rights are really taken away. In fact, just wait until it’s happened and you have something to bitch about, okay?

    Kid A's defense is that Kid A is worse. 

    In your world, Kid A gets off Scott free because Kid B did worse. In my world, they both get punished, but to obviously different degrees.

    Last time I checked, peaceful protest and exercising freedom of speech wasn’t a crime, regardless of whose house or business or public property it occurs on. You brought up “one side” and the “other side not as bad,” not me.

    Why is it “wrong?” Because you disagree with it? It’s constitutionally protected. Are you for selective application of constitutionally protected rights?
    I'm not saying they should be prosecuted, lol. I'm saying I don't think it's ethical.

    more howaboutism.

    yeah, they're both wrong. 
    The right has created a cottage industry of political violence, resulting in death, intimidation and harassment for those that oppose their views and legislation. Rushbo amplified it, abortion providers and folks who worked at clinics have been murdered and Deathsantis and Abbott & Costello have legalized aspects of it, whether it be for abortion or voting. So excuse the fuck out of me if the left exercises their freedom of speech in front of SCOTUS homes on “public” property.

    I know, both sides.

    I think your home is off limits. shame them in public or at work or whatever....fine. But your home? big fat NOPE. 
    i respectfully disagree. they are purposely inflicting pain on women. they live in affluent neighborhoods. they can either make due and deal with some people voicing their anger at home, or they can go stay in a hotel for a week. in my opinion, dealing with some people out in front of their house is a tiny, tiny price to pay for making women carry the child of their their rapist. having a few hundred people in front of their house pales in comparison to the lifelong pain inflicted on those women.
    I find it odd that as soon as someone is rich they should be subject to harassment because they can "afford to deal with it". that to me is a very odd take.  

    going down the road where a judge feels intimidated to make a ruling/not make a ruling is a very dangerous path. 

    if republicans were harassing liberal judges about to make a ruling on 2A, I feel like you and Halifax would have a VERY different opinion on this. 
    Do you think the right would show up to peacefully exercise their freedom of speech?Are you trying to same-same this? 
    no. the right shows up with guns. see michigan state house protests from a few years ago.

    founding documents give us the right to show up and peacefully assemble and seek redress of grievances. we have the right to do that. this is exactly what is happening outside the justices' homes. they want a redress of grievances. it is legal. this idea goes all the way back to the magna carta.

    I agree with Hugh.  The left should not stoop to the right's level and attempt to intimidate a person by protesting in front of their home.  And to me, I see it as an attempt to intimidate.

    Is it intimidation if they were to stand in silence with lit candles? How about if they recite the Lord’s Prayer repeatedly?

    And thus far, “the left is not stooping to the right’s level.” Not even close.

    I can’t believe you guys are falling for this after what we’ve witnessed over the past almost 6-7 years. The left continues to be demonized for doth protesting too much and the needle indicating what’s normal, acceptable or how it should be continues to move to the right. You’re going to wake up one day and wonder what the fuck happened to the US.

    ”The SCOTUS leak is a greater threat to our democracy than 1/6.” That wee little peaceful protest at the Capitol? Meh.

    yeah, sure, we're falling for it. falling for knowing how to be objective and not constantly outraged by everything in the news cycle every single day. 
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    I agree with Hugh.  The left should not stoop to the right's level and attempt to intimidate a person by protesting in front of their home.  And to me, I see it as an attempt to intimidate.  
    let me know when we show up with ar-15s.
