In terms of whether this sort of protest (outside homes of SCOTUS justices or politicians) is right move, I think the critics would be on stronger grounds if they offered a counter-strategy.

In the long run, the only political strategy that makes sense is activism to force Dems on state and federal level to vote to codify Roe (and indeed protections beyond Roe). But that's the work of many elections.

counter productive because taking the protest to a personal address is seen by many as a line crossed. Which means there is a relatively widely held principled reason for not doing it. The principle being: political protest becomes more dangerous the more personal it becomes.

If it’s okay to picket a Supreme Court justice’s home it’s okay to picket anyone’s. Including those without police protection. Is that what you want? Who would take any public facing job under those circumstances?
