'We won't be bullied': Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas tells protestors that they won't influence final ruling on abortion
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] - Justice Clarence Thomas said on Friday that the court cannot be 'bullied' by protesters over the leak of the Supreme Court decision regarding Roe v Wade
- The leak set off a political firestorm, with abortion-rights supporters staging rallies outside the courthouse and at locations around the United States
- Thomas, one of the most conservative justices on the nine-member court, made only a few passing references to the protests at a conference in Atlanta
- As a society, 'we are becoming addicted to wanting particular outcomes, not living with the outcomes we don't like,' Thomas said
- 'We can't be an institution that can be bullied into giving you just the outcomes you want. The events from earlier this week are a symptom of that'
