I agree with you and the Post that it is unacceptable to picket someone's home.
I am inclined to think that it was a clerk to a liberal Justice who leaked it, in hopes that seeing public reaction would had an effect. I think if they backed off the "Privacy" piece and simply said the science of the 1974 decision was outdated that they'd be much better off. Once they hit the Privacy basis for the decision they endanger birth control measures, marriage equality.,and other issues...so they get much more opposition and set things back.
Gary, I don’t condone harassing anyone in front of their home. However, I don’t recall your outrage when people gathered in front of the homes of election officials or public health officials regarding the ongoing election lies in the first case and COVID policy in the second. There were and are death threats in both instances. How about sharing your stance in those cases? Thanks.
Thank you JoAnn. The reason I quoted the Post’ editorial about the federal law specifically prohibiting protests targeting judges at their homes was to point out the distinction between that and other similar protests.
So, Ruth Marcus says, "kudos to Politico for its scoop?" What about, "we shouldn't publish this for the good of civil order?" Or, maybe, "who sent this to us? Let's find out before we print it?"
