Where is your source for this figure? Where is the scientific poll data?

DP - check the polls. Latest Gallup poll showed overall confidence in SCOTUS dropped to a record low, 25%. 13% of Democrats trust the Supreme court. And only 39% of Republicans do as well.

That is abysmally bad. Roberts and the rest should be deeply ashamed.

Just let the Justices get concealed carry permits and strap themselves up with pistols under their robes, and equip their homes with AR-15s.

Republicans have repeatedly told us ad nauseam this is the solution and that nothing else can or should be done to protect anyone.

It's hard to watch a Clarence and a treasonous Ginny strutting about without fear of consequences. It's hard to read Alito citing such racist and misogynist texts upon which to base his decision and writing about women in such a degrading manner.

But this is their job. They should not be disturbed at their home.

Totally agree. If you believe in rule of law (and we do, don't we?), you can't be okay with vigilante justice against a public official. You just can't.

But, but, but...... It's fine as long as it is against somebody we DON'T agree with!!!!!

This. Just wait until the liberal justices make an unpopular decision. I guess OP (and others) will be fine with protesters threatening them at their homes.

What that boils down to is that you disagree with their decisions on particular cases and are vengeful.

Look, that is fine. But let's just call it what it is.

Precisely this. Totally expected, coming from Democrats.

Of course not.

You see.... the standard is simple.
If they are liberal Justices, or Justices who vote in a way which liberals approve, they are most deserving of protection.
If they aren't liberal or don't vote the right way, they absolutely should be protested and threatened.

No one is saying the justices should be threatened. And no one is threatening them.

DP. Why are you lying? Wow. I'm sure you're aware a man traveled to Kavanaugh's house for the express purpose of murdering him, right?

"Particular cases?" Stuff it. At this point it's painfully clear that they aren't even legitimate and shouldn't be hearing or deciding ANY cases. They dishonestly got their seats through lying and deceit and should be impeached for it. And given the magnitude of such an egregious breach you should be angry too.

Hold up, how do you define "no one"? Because it is a fact that at least one of them has absolutely been threated.

They weren't actually threatened. Dude turned himself in before doing anything.

Oh, hon. Educate yourself before speaking.

The Justice Department has charged the man who was arrested near Justice Brett Kavanaugh's house in Maryland early Wednesday with attempting or threatening to kidnap or murder a US judge.

Then there is this guy......
I have to wonder how many more anonymous threats they have received.

Lots. These creeps are just the tip of the iceberg. Can you imagine the outrage if they were threatening the liberal justices?

Increase in threats
There has been a rise in threats against the court amid the national abortion rights debate and protests that have taken place across the US. The Department of Homeland Security issued a memo last month warning law enforcement that there are potential threats to members of the Supreme Court after a draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade was leaked.

The memo also said Supreme Court police have noticed a major uptick in social media threats of violence, with some currently under investigation. Some of those threats have been directed at the justices and the court building, which is now surrounded by fencing.

Lone wackjob with mental health issues who turned himself in. The guy stalking Sotomayor was far more dangerous.

They want to issue rulings that could lead us to a civil war and wonder why people are angry? How clueless and out of touch.

PP you quoted, and I am a democrat. I don’t endorse the blanket generalizations or attacks.

For anyone concerned about their safety, impeaching these clearly illegitimate, unfit Justices for perjury and removing them from the court would be a step in the right direction where it comes to restoring trust and accountability in the Supreme Court.

Just to be clear, are you asserting that a “lone whack job with mental health issues” is not a threat?

Agreed. You disagree with the Supreme Court decision and feel the judges should be threatened. Do you hear yourself?? Are you even an attorney - can you honestly say you understand the law?

In this case he actually wasn't. He was the one who turned himself in.

The main point was in taking issue with your insinuated conflation of that lone wack job with every single person exercising their legitimate and protected First Amendment rights to protest at their houses.
