Those MAGAs Are A Threat to Democracy!

 See what their behavior is causing at the Supreme Court!  5/5/22 NBC News:

WASHINGTON — Workers began installing tall fencing around the Supreme Court Wednesday night after another evening of protests over the leaked opinion that signaled justices plan to overturn Roe v. Wade.

Eight-foot panels of fencing were erected along the south side of the Supreme Court building, which is across the street from the Capitol. The barriers replaced smaller bike racks that were removed earlier in the evening.

Police officers on the scene described the fencing as "nonscalable," similar to the security perimeter that was built around the Capitol in the wake of the Jan. 6 attack.

Construction of the new fence comes as people have flocked to the area near the Supreme Court to participate in demonstrations since Monday.

Supporters and opponents of abortion rights have rallied outside the building after Politico published a leaked draft opinion that suggests a majority of justices are in favor of reversing the 1973 landmark Roe v. Wade ruling.

Yes, the Republic is in danger.  But not just because a tiny minority of Trump supporters engage in aggravated tourism, but because the progressives have spent a generation insisting that if they do not get their way, they will burn it down. 

Also, nonscalable seems like a pretty strong claim.  

1. A and B lift C onto 6' tall D's shoulders.  He pivots over the fence.  

2. A and B pivot an 8' ladder over top of fence, insert tongs through fence, pull ladder to fence.  Tie it fence.

3. Erect 8' fence on outside of fence.

4. Climb up exterior fence; climb down interior fence.


Neither are fast operations and a single incident can be stopped by U.S. Marshals.  But a hundred such along the fence would be unstoppable without tear gas or gunfire.  Neither would be very good optics.  Even the mainstream media would have a hard time making A, B, C, and D look reasonable.
