Harassing the Justices: Not Free Speech By Charles Taylor (Florida)
A Harvard Law School instructor has tweeted that the conservative Supreme Court Justices who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 ruling that legalized abortion on demand in the U.S. “should never know peace again. “It is our civic duty to accost them every time they are in public. They are pariahs. Since women don't have their rights, these justices should never have a peaceful moment in public again.” This story, ironically broke at the same time that socialist Democrat AOC, was complaining about harassment as a comedian had trolled her on the steps of the Capitol Building, saying in jest that she was sexy and had a big “booty” even though she supports abortion. So, why isn’t the recommendation to accost the conservative justices in public, not intimidation and harassment? Well, it is, and recommending it is incitement to harassment.
“A Harvard Law School instructor tweeted that the conservative Supreme Court Justices who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade — the 1973 ruling that legalized abortion in the U.S. — "should never know peace again."
Alejandra Caraballo, a cyberlaw clinical instructor at the prestigious institution, tweeted her comments June 25 — the day after the headline-grabbing decision by the high court. Her tweets made headlines only in the last couple of days.
What are the details?
"The 6 justices who overturned Roe should never know peace again," she wrote. "It is our civic duty to accost them every time they are in public. They are pariahs. Since women don't have their rights, these justices should never have a peaceful moment in public again."
She also said the conservative justices are "coming for contraception, same sex marriage, and the ability to criminalize LGBTQ people again. May those justices feel the unease, insecurity, and anxiety they seek to inflict on us."
Caraballo also posted photos of Chief Justice John Roberts, Justice Clarence Thomas, Justice Samuel Alito, Justice Neil Gorsuch, Justice Brett Kavanaugh, and Justice Amy Coney Barrett — all of whom voted to overturn Roe v. Wade. They represent the court's conservative majority.”
