Protest at the Steak House.

@Doctor-Phibes said in Protest at the Steak House.:
Do you think what Schumer said/did was equivalent to what Trump did or better/worse?
Oh, I don't want to get into a pissing contest as to who's worse.
However, Schumer issued a direct threat to the justices of SCOTUS.
And with regard to protests, what, exactly, did Trump say? I'm not interested in what the Jan 6 "commission" has found about the goings-on in the West Wing, or the Presidential Limo. What did he actually say to the people?
And, if you're going to cite "Go to protest," as part of his speech, be sure that you include the "peacefully" part of it.

He refused to accept the will of the electorate. He said that Joe Biden would be not be a legitimate President.
I cannot remember this ever happening in any country I've lived before. He edged the USA closer to becoming a banana republic.
You don't think this is a big deal?
And sure, I'm sure you can find examples of congress people saying this type of thing. But he wasn't a Congressman, he was the Head of State.
And incidentally, I have no interest in trying to defend Schumer. The move towards banana republic continues....

Oh well, too late for that since the first reply to this thread. :man-shrugging:

Put the quote up there and explain how you arrived at that conclusion.

Because he thought the election was stolen. A lot of people do. Millions, in fact.
And it's not necessarily from anything Trump said. Look at Carl Rove's most important counties. Look at the votes that suddenly "appeared" after 2 AM. Look at Dem cheating in urban areas in the past. Look at allegations of ballot harvesting and the nursing homes that voted 100% Democrat. Look at the split tickets. Look at the problems with mail-in ballots. look at the Dems fighting election reform on every front and their attempts at letting illegals vote in our elections.
It doesn't pass the sniff test.
If the Dems want people to accept the results of elections, work with the GOP to make elections fair and not subject to tampering by any means, by either side. That's good for all of the people.
Now, hide and see what happens...

The protesters did not enter the building, so it's somewhat better than some of the incidents with Cruz, etc.
But I still don't like it. I don't like people protesting at people's homes, doxxing the addresses of their church or their children's schools. The next step is physical.
TG said the other day that people are born with innate common decency. To that, I say Hah! to her face.

I agree with everything you said above, (except for the last sentence 555)
You, for example, (or me) would not think of doing something like that to the judge, even if you disagreed with the person. I think that is a part definition of human decency. I think pretty much everyone else on this forum board is the same also. So yeah, I do think that most people have common decency.

I find it interesting that the Judges’ privacy is being violated by people over a twisted perversion of a definition of privacy…
-
What I don’t get is why? Okay, the court made it’s decision and you are pissed. Harassing them at this point accomplishes nothing. The next move is harassing legislators, both state and federal. Harassment and intimidation of the judiciary accomplishes nothing except wasting your time.

Hay @Catseye3 ! Your AOC post of the day!
I’m old enough to remember when she nearly died because protesters were 2 buildings and 3/4 of a mile away…

There should be an automatic function on the internet that when she says something, it is automatically deleted.
And the protesters, something should happen to them. It is really bad of them to do that.
While @Jolly , @George-K and I may disagree with the Supreme Court decision, we should respect it.

I really haven't expressed my opinion on the Court's decision, have I?

Actually, let me rephrase that.
I think, as a matter of law, the Court's decision is correct. As a video about it I posted earlier explains, if not enumerated in the Constitution, "rights" are such only in the context of other rights (free speech, eg) and in the context of historical precedent.
So, to rephrase, I haven't expressed my opinion on abortion - and I won't.
