When governments anywhere know for a fact they are taking away people's rights they usually have to call out the army. Apparently people get kind of upset.
I was underwhelmed by the paucity of rifhtwing vs leftwing violence taking place todayBefore you start waving that victory flag too hard ...

If SCOTUS wants to be safe, they can ban guns
Nancy to Capitol Police, "Let them in!"Meh, granite tends to slow things down a bit.....That is unless your "security" opens the hardened doors for them.
Other than some bollards out front there's not much outside, that and I suspect that they have a aversion to barbed wire and gates anyway.
Though they do remind you of it when you go in.
I agree

Fair enough; the short answer is that no, I didn't have any nefarious ideas in mind. My role in society requires me to be impartial, and I try to practice that here as well; in this case, I focused on just the sentence that says "Republicans have never engaged in this kind of behavior." One can make an argument about which party did it more, or in what way or for what reason, but not when you include the absolute "never." It's not true that "all" attacks such as this are from white right-wingers, but the link shows that some are.Never in a million years. Never. I will say that as many times as I have to.
You will never see that kind of behavior from those on the right who know better.
I'm sure there are those on the left who know better, too, but are afraid to say it. They know what their leaders and clique-mates will say or do to them if they do.
Now, seeing as this is our first time crossing paths on this forum:
If it was out of some sense of false objectivity you presented that argument then spare me. I can't stand people who think themselves mentally adroit enough to remain above the fray, even I'm not immune to the draw. If you're the type who thinks any and all acts of this nature are white right wingers or some other garbage then you are blind beyond hope.
If you think that by me defending the right that I somehow toe the line for them, you are sorely mistaken. They are just about as weak and feckless as the left. I'm only telling you these things as to clear up any seemingly willful misconceptions you have of me.
Otherwise, well met and have a pleasant night.
The Supreme Court can't ban anything.I agree

Honestly, I'd rather speak with people here based on what we have in common (American democracy rocks, Communism sucks, and so on) rather than get involved in the name-calling and roundabout trolling that often goes on. I'm not on here as often as everyone else, though, so I can't often keep track of who said what and when. Even if we disagree about some things, I would much rather have a well met and pleasant night than rack up an adversary for something little.
Who encouraged violent acts against them?No. If you want SCOTUS to be safe, stop encouraging extremists to carry out violent behavior against them and their families when or if they rule against you.
Chuck Schumer. End of list.Who encouraged violent acts against them?
Chuck Schumer. End of list.
And do you naively think the extremists in your party were ever swayed by that apology? Not in the slightest. To my knowledge, he never discouraged any violence against the SCOTUS justices, either. The damage has been done, and people, no matter who they are or how stupid they might be, have the capacity for memorization and the ability to act on the false rage those comments cause. The age of the comments he made is irrelevant, the apology is meaningless, namely because it did not stop the attempted assassination of Kavanaugh, the doxxing of ACB's children, or the leak of the Dobbs draft.BUT that was 2 YEARS AGO? And he apologized in public, less than 24 hours after he said it. Two years ago, with an apology? Two years ago.....
