'We won't be bullied': Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas tells protestors that they won't influence final ruling on abortion
2022-05-08
[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'

#2  Like most things these days, we will never get the truth about what happened. I don't see all this printing going on if this wasn't how they were going to vote. But I don't actually know that.

A thought the whole idea of lifetime appointments was to be past all political and public pressure to do this or that as opposed to following the law.

If the SCOTUS decides to continue Roe vs. Wade?

The Protesters will take this as a victory by their using threats of attacks to accomplish their goals.

This will lead to bolder Political and Radical Threats and subversive actions, as other Far Left Agendas become threaten by the SCOTUS rulings.
