    I don’t recall you making a single post condemning the right on anything. On top of that your comment doesn’t make any sense. It’s like staying silent if the refs let Kentucky take the field with 15 players, and then poo pooing Florida trotting out 15 players saying it doesn’t help. smh

    You have a terrible memory, then. I've condemned bad acts on my side. You're enabling bad acts on yours.

    Don't come crying to me when the chickens come home to roost.

    You'd think they banned abortion.

    If you feel this strongly about it, this can all be solved at the ballot box.

    Your defending your party in those posts, not being critical of them. Strike one.

    Looks like you have a bad memory AND you can't read.

    I condemned January 6th, the rioters, and John Eastman just to name a few things. Yet, here you are enabling agitators harassing Supreme Court justices at restaurants.

    They effectively banned it in over the half the country. The court doesn't make its decisions in a vacuum. The five hardliners who voted to overturn Roe undoubtedly knew that the procedure would be banned in a significant number of states either immediately or within a very short period of time.

    Also, individual rights and significantly the right to bodily autonomy by women should not be left up to politicians. If the decision as to whether schools should be desegregated was decided at the ballot box rather than by the Court in Brown v. Board of Education, most Southern states would have opted for segregated schools.

    It should be left up to the Christian minorities in gerrymandered states. Got it.

    The entire issue is whether there is a Constitutional right to an abortion. There is none. Even Ginsburg knew that Roe v. Wade established such a right on shaky grounds despite agreeing with the outcome.

    The entire justification behind Plessy v. Ferguson is based on the assumption that "separate but equal" is equal and does not violate the Equal Protection Clause. The Court in Brown v. Board of Education correctly disagreed.

    I also love how you're back to loving overturning precedent. Precedent matters, but it is not everything as Brown v. Board of Education correctly demonstrates.

    Some issues are meant for the states, some issues are meant for the federal government, and some rights are protected by the Constitution which restrict the ability of states to infringe upon them.

    For you, precedent is great when we talk about Roe v. Wade but terrible when we talk about Plessy v. Ferguson.

    States rights to regulate are great when we talk about gun control (which happens to infringe on a right explicitly enumerated in the Constitution), but they're terrible when we talk about abortion.

    It's not hypocritical either way to hold these views. But it does demonstrate that state governing, federal governing, and individual rights all have their roles, and none are always good or bad, they simply "are." You just disagree how this Court views these roles.

    Democrats: "Undermining elections is bad."

    Also Democrats: "When Republicans win, it's because they cheated/gerrymandered."

    There's a whole lot more to condemn than that. Let's start with 60% of the Repubs in congress.

    I don't understand how any sane person could condone these tactics. They are half a step away from a direct attack on the Supreme Court of the United States. An action that these same left-wingers have screamed (and rightly so) bloody murder over when right wing activists directly attacked the Congress of the United States of America.

    What did he expect?? I guess for people to behave as though they are civilized human beings, and not a bunch of Trump-nuts.

    When unelected bureaucrats strip people of their rights, they can face the music for it. Nonviolent protesting, especially of powerful government officials, is a right in this country. If that makes Kavanaugh or the others uncomfortable, so be it. They can retire from the Supreme Court if they don't like it.

    If he doesn't like it I guess he shouldn't have lied to get on the Supreme Court.

    Of course, that “right” was created by unelected bureaucrats.

    Take away someone’s right and you better expect they’ll take yours. They shouldn’t get a single day to eat peacefully outside their house for their entire term - life. Once I am done with my job I’ll join in. I encourage my wife to heckle in the meantime.

    Ohhhhhhh. Another slippery slope post! You know what? You post this stuff condemning protestors and next you’ll be shooting peaceful protesters. This has to stop 715.

    This is fun. No wonder it’s so attractive for the lazy.

    No, our Constitution created that right. The unelected bureaucrats only control whether or not to recognize it.
