Which brings me to my point: I look at the hand wringing over the supposed optics of peaceful protesting outside of Kavanaugh's home, and want to put my head through my desk. This is a mild escalation of things. 23/n
If they're so worried about the decorum, they should be be focused on the reasons WHY people have felt that protesting in front of the court is effectless. It's like complaining that about the fire department using axes in your house when it's burning to the ground. 24/n
Yeah, it's destructive, but way worse than what's happening in the bigger picture. And the big picture for the US is ****ing terrifying. 25/n
This is a good analysis and forewarning. We need to make sure everyone votes. We need to move where our votes can matter. I’m in a red state in a red district. I still don’t give up. We need more democrats running for all positions in red districts.
I'm not worried about decorum, I'm worried about 1) public safety 2) felony convictions against protesters as a voter supression tool
Protesting in front of SCOTUS is effectless. They do whatever the hell they want, Constitution be damned, stare decisis be damned. All that matters is their personal agenda. They answer to no one and that is the problem.
When did people get the mistaken idea protests accomplish anything beyond the optics? They 1)rally support and gain sympathy 2)or they lose it 3)or they accomplish nothing but letting off steam. Where's the strategy for number 1? Otherwise it's the others.
I said the day that this leaked that the regular apolitical people will have to make their voices heard to have any chance of overturning this. This would mean large-scale protests outside DC. Whether the protest is at Kavanaugh's house or the Court it still would not work.

When a citizenry has exhausted the democratic process and sense there is no hope for change they will either except a dictatorship,live in poverty or resort to mass violence leading to dismemberment of a country.Beyond a civil conflict it’s all for grabs.
