Va. And Md. Governors Demand Garland Ban Protests Outside Justices Homes

[skews13]

The Republican governors of Maryland and Virginia are calling on Attorney General Merrick Garland to ban protests outside the homes of Supreme Court justices living in those states.

Youngkin actually tried to make Alito’s entire neighborhood sacred, or at least heavily restricted, ground. He asked local authorities to set up a perimeter around the area, limiting who could enter, and offered the state police to help. Fairfax County officials essentially told him to shove it.

People going into clinics for legal medical care are routinely harassed and threatened by anti-abortion protesters. Abortion providers live under constant threat. But a few candlelight vigils and peaceful protests directed at Supreme Court justices who hold power over the lives of everyone in this country and we’re supposed to be shocked and deeply concerned.

The Supreme Court has never been as insulated from politics as its defenders would have us believe, but now? The Supreme Court of Kavanaugh and Alito and Barrett? Of Clarence Thomas and his insurrectionist wife? A Supreme Court with five justices nominated by men who got into the White House after losing the popular vote? Spare me the pieties about the sanctity of the institution.

Yep, conservatives can dish it out, but they can’t take it. Good for Fairfax county.

Because its illegal and Republicans enforce the law nitwit.

The Republican governors of Maryland and Virginia are ignorant and ridiculous.

The AG has no such authority.

Illegal means against the law. Since Dimmers have no respect of the law someone has to intervene.

Because its illegal and Republicans enforce the law nitwit.

Exercising your right to protest is perfectly legal, and Republicans are a criminal enterprise. Nitwit.

Protesting is one thing, threatening the life of a Supreme Court Justice and family is a felony idiot.

Wrong.

Republicans have contempt for the law and Constitution.

Then why do the governors have to request a ban? Maybe... you're wrong?

 

[pknopp]

If a person has a right to protest, Garland does not have the ability to ban that.

Exercise to a brainless Dimmer involves flames and murder.

Which is not what the protests are.

 

[jbrownson0831]

Wrong.

We are the only ones who know what the law is doofus....certainly the only ones who enforce it. Now back to your nap.

They can call the National Guard up and order them to end these protests. They are agsinst the law.

Lock them up and detain them for the Federal Crimes. Then find every state and local law to use against them because the fed will do nothing

Youngkin can override leftist Fairfax county. The VSP have authority over all of Virginia.

The Superintendent of State Police, his several assistants and police officers appointed by him are vested with the powers of a sheriff for the purpose of enforcing all the criminal laws of this Commonwealth.

Illegal means against the law. Since Dimmers have no respect of the law someone has to intervene.

Republicans want to silence lawful protest.

 

[jbrownson0831]

Republicans want to silence lawful protest.

We want to stop the burning, ransacking and murder that Dimmer terrorists are known for...lawful has nothing to do with it. Murdering a Justice would not be lawful Mr Backward.

 

[skews13]

Exercise to a brainless Dimmer involves flames and murder.

You mean like the murderous Trumpers on January 6 2021 at the Capitol?

So when do you law enforcing Republicans plan on prosecuting Trump?

Then why has nobody been arrested?

 

[eagle1462010]

Republicans want to silence lawful protest.

They are against the law at their homes. Time to play how many protesters can we knock down with one sweep of a water canno.

Might as well have fun cleaning out the protesters. We can give them soap and shampoo because they smell too.

I’m told there is a federal law prohibiting the sort of harrassment of judges outside their homes

This is obviously the corrupt DOJ playing partisan politics
