As SCOTUS opened today, seven protesters - one by one - interrupted the court proceedings by declaring things like: "Money is not speech."

@chrisgeidner To be fair, it’s very open when it comes to briefs and audio recordings. I wish our Supreme Court were like that. -
@carlgardner "Very open" is a comparative term. Briefs aren't online, and audio can take days. -
@chrisgeidner I find briefs here: http://www.americanbar.org/publications/preview_home/alphabetical.html … You mean not on the Court’s own website? -
@carlgardner yes, I know how to get briefs. That's working *around* the court, not openness. -
@chrisgeidner Sure, okay. The trouble with our system is that written arguments are much harder to access than that. -
@carlgardner Got it. Not saying we don't have it better, but our Supreme Court sucks compared to lower federal courts for access is my pt. -
@chrisgeidner I see. That is weird, yes.
