Sure. If you said I am against windmills because I just don't like them. And someone said, would you like them if I paid you some money? Sure that isn't selling out. But we both know that isn't what we are talking about.

What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

You should arrest someone for asking a ridiculous/shitty question? Wow.

Arrest/FBI aside, I hope we can all agree that nobody here is advocating any violence against any elected official nor appointed judge/Justice. And I see no sign that such violent suggestions are common or mainstream, so let's not assume that one moron on Twitter represents anybody else.

I do think it would be a genuine crisis if some whack job found a way to attack and seriously injure or kill a bunch of Supreme Court Justices. What would we do? Just let the current President nominate a bunch of new ones, presumably all partisans for his own party? There would be such an outcry. But what else exactly could you do? I really hope they have excellent security on all the Justices to keep them safe.

If something like that happened, there would finally be wide-spread support for court reform. Probably changes to life-time appointments, with terms that allow more judges to cycle through the court (and more justices to align to the district courts like they used to).

I did hear this morning that the conservative Supreme Court Justices home addresses were doxxed and that information spread, to create protests in front of them. Would you be surprised if their families are targeted for harassment? Or some nut job that's terminal takes this guys "abstract question" seriously?

Are you advocating for something to happen? It sort of sounds like it would be positive changes in your opinion.

I would like all of that to happen, without the violence.

Just want to say that i am 100% opposed to this. Justices and all public figures should be entitled to feel safe in their own homes.

Christine Blasey Ford still is in danger for exposing Kavanaugh as a sexual assaulter.

I am 100% not opposed to this. If you are an elected official or a person in authority and are actively looking to make life harder to live, removing rights from people, you should expect people to protest you. Protesting doesn't mean threatening their safety.
