Chevy Chase Protest - 2022
Kalorama Protest - 2017
Controversial Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh is being protested in his own neighborhood after his name appeared in support of a leaked Supreme Court draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade. On Saturday, The Washington Post reported on Lacie Wooten-Holway protests in the Chevy Chase neighborhood she shares with Kavanaugh. The newspaper reported one man complanining about her tactics. “That I don’t agree with. I think you vote, and you expand the court. You don’t go to a guy’s house," the man said. "I organize peaceful candlelit vigils in front of his house. … We’re about to get doomsday, so I’m not going to be civil to that man at all," she replied. Wooten-Holway, a mother of two, is a sexual assault survivor. "Neighbors tell her this kind of protest is disrespectful in a place they believe should be a private, family-friendly escape from bitter Washington politics," the newspaper reported. "Other people cheer, saying they wouldn’t personally join but are encouraged to see someone speaking out." In 2017, Wooten-Holway testified before DC's Judiciary and Public Safety Public Hearing about being sexually assaulted. |
| If they didn’t put those huge fences around the Supreme Court, maybe folks wouldn’t find the need to go to his house. |
Love it |
| I hope it continues and grows. Public people deserve public attention. |
Yes, this behavior will get Kavanugh to reconsider

It worked when SCOTUS was about to outlaw Obamacare. They changed their minds. |
| Totally counterproductive - and I say that as someone who is pro-choice and furious about the draft opinion. |

| Republicans would never get away with this. |

Folks,
The protests should be focused on Alito, Thomas, and Gorusch. Not Roberts or Kavanaugh. Focus on the fanatics. |
The fanatics aren’t swayable. |

+100. No idea where this "Republicans would never get away with this" claptrap comes from. Just more whining and self-victimization from the erstwhile party of personal responsibility. |
| "Protesting on a public sidewalk outside somebody's house is going too far!" scream the people who support forcing 80,000 women annually with ectopic pregnancies to choose between dying painfully or going to jail. |
| anyone know Wooten-Holway's address? I'd like to protest at her house in the middle of the night. |
