Liberal protest group offers 'bounties' for info on where conservative justices are located | Washington Examiner
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
A liberal protest group is offering cash to anyone who sees the conservative justices of the Supreme Court and provides their location.
The justices targeted by the group ShutDownDC are John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, and Amy Coney Barrett. The group tweeted that it is willing to give "$50 to anyone who gives a confirmed sighting and $200 if the Justice or Justices are in the same area 30 minutes after their location is given."
DC Service Industry Workers... If you see Kavanaugh, Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch, Coney Barrett or Roberts DM us with the details!
We'll venmo you $50 for a confirmed sighting and $200 if they're still there 30 mins after your message. https://t.co/xXWZ5JZiE7 — ShutDownDC (@ShutDown_DC) July 8, 2022
All six of the justices being targeted ruled in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization that Mississippi can maintain its law banning abortion after 15 weeks of gestation on June 24.
On Wednesday night, Kavanaugh was forced to exit through a back door while dining in downtown Washington after abortion rights protesters showed up.
Twitter, the platform on which ShutDownDC announced its "bounty," does not allow users to "engage in the targeted harassment of someone, or incite other people to do so."
ShutDownDC previously held a protest against the Supreme Court on June 13, one of the court's decision days. The group's protest, titled "Shut Down SCOTUS," intended to blockade the streets around the Supreme Court to protest against the impending decision regarding Roe v. Wade .
ShutDownDC has not responded to the Washington Examiner's request for comment.

What a group of dweebs!
Do they seriously have nothing better to do with their lives?
They forget both sides can play this game.
after taking the right of bodily autonomy away from 51% of americans, they deserve to lose some of their freedom as well. let those thumpers spend the rest of their lives living with paranoia and wondering what will happen to them next.
Life is a crap shoot, it keeps it interesting.
You should have someone explain the SCOTUS ruling to you since you have CLEARLY misunderstood it.
Are liberals really that stupid? Chasing a SCOTUS around is about as effective as going out and yelling at the sky. If they had two brain cells to rub together they should know to go to the "State" houses with strict abortion laws and protest there.
Just the ones who have group tantrums and call them "protests".
That assumes the purpose of their actions is to affect change rather than simply express their "feelings".
Can't think of any other way to affect change in a life-long fascist appointee.
The right wingers on SCOTUS just seriously pissed off way over half the country.
Maybe they should learn that fact the hard way and just barricade at home.
What they just did to the EPA gained them many more enemies as well.
Okay, who are you claiming is a life-long fascist, and what do you base the claim on?
People will get over it in time. Justices shouldn't take popular opinion into consideration when forming legal opinions.
Or maybe 'protestors' can start to act like decent human beings and stop harassing Justices just because they don't like one or two decisions.
Many are happy that SCOTUS is basically calling for Congress to do their jobs instead of relegating so much to federal agencies.
Maybe some of those left wing protesters harassing; chasing; and trying to kill Justices should receive the same treatment as Ashli Babbitt.
They are all trying to forcefully coerce government.
They are all committing sedition.
They deserve nothing less if our justice system is truly fair.
That is just utterly unhinged. What the fuck?
Do what liberals want or you better lock the house down like it's The Purge? Right. Because that's not fascist or anything.
Do you hear yourself?
They should be arrested for trying to intimidate a SCOTUS Justice.
I hope someday we will!
i think it could get interesting , especially from the perspective of the business owner whose business is being affected . i can think of a couple ways this could backfire on those wanting and trying to enlist those servers to call in where these people are .
Why eat out when every waitress will be standing in line to spit in your food.
The majority of servers are ethical people and wouldn't risk losing their jobs in high-priced restaurants over something that may or may not have any effect on them. Most servers wouldn't be so childish.
I agree. Only morally corrupt fucktards would do, or even think such a thing.
Probably an instant write up if a server even talked about doing it, and instant firing if they ever actually were dumb enough to do it.
Gross!
Good way to lose your job if caught . and people have lost them for less.
But your on the right track as to what i was thinking .
say a business owner decides to offer a "counter bounty " affecting any server that does take up that bounty offered , say $75 bucks cash on the spot to anyone that reports a co worker for doing that , and if its coroberated , another $200 bucks in their paycheck after the server reported is fired for cause .
Might just find out who your real friends are in that situation .
As much as I disagree with the conservative judges on this issue, I disagree even more with such threats and acts of intimidation being taken against the Justices, or against any persons in authoritative positions. It should be no surprise that such actions are useless and will tend to cause the reverse of what was intended, i.e. to strengthen their resolve of those who are intimidated, rather than cause a change. IMO such threats reflect that evolution has not yet peaked and some people act like wild animals, making America look like a primitive third world country. In a democratic nation, people have the right to vote their feelings, and a majority should determine the outcome.
Before the conservatives on this site get puffed up, I think that the January 6th rampage was as disgusting as intimidating the Justices.

What about the 2020 riots?
Far more damage, loss of life, and intimidation occurred during those riots then on Jan 6th. Big difference is the charging of the Jan 6th rioters as compared to the 2020 rioters; and the current wack jobs going after justices.
I'm a peaceful person and wish everyone in the world could live in peace. I despise riots, especially those causing harm to persons or physical damage, whether they be in Seattle, Washington D.C., Hong Kong, Kunming. As I noted in my previous comment, obviously too many people have not yet evolved above the level of wild animals.
The deaths in the 2020 protests were found to be caused by white counter protestors.
Bullshit.
Can prove you wrong easily.
Such peaceful protesters./S
Sigh, come on, don't pull this shit. Disagreeing and being angry is fine, but don't start playing the same game as the other extremists because in the end you are basically advocating the same thing as them.
That being said, with their decision that guns should be even easier for Americans to obtain, and by contrast gun violence should increase, I wouldn't shed a tear if a few of them were victims of their own rulings.
If the constant threat of gun violence is good for the rest of us, especially cops, why not them?
So why is that the cities with the most stringent gun laws have the most gun crime? Could it be that criminals don't follow the law?
Removing guns from law abiding citizens isn't going to do one damn bit of good. The illegal gun trade will be overjoyed by it; as they will become the only means of getting a firearm.
Looks like you didn't fully understand the rulings.
I notice all the Democrats defending this, like Biden's election denying spokesman, aren't publishing their itineraries , home addresses, etc.. so protesters can participate in democracy while they try to eat, sleep etc..
Funny that the picture used in the article has nothing to do with the Supreme Court. When Trump took the Oath of Office, this gal got hysterical and fell to her knees screaming NOOOO and somebody took her picyure! Now she has to live with that photo the rest of her life as a constant reminder equating to the craziness of the leftist liberal mindset in whatever other people want to use it for. But then again who knows, maybe the gal will send copies out as Christmas cards./sarc
It's hilarious how liberals want to shut things down that don't follow their narrative.
Standard MO for them.
Hypocrisy at it's finest.
Yep.
Do you consider DeSantis a liberal?
Where did I mention him?
You said, and I quote, "liberals want to shut things down that don't follow their narrative". Since DeSantis is well known for trying to shut down things that don't follow his narrative, I am trying to figure out if you consider him a liberal as well.
So, no, I didn't mention him.
You did not mention anyone specifically, that's why I had to ASK. But as usual, I see that you are too afraid to answer.
You're right. And that was intentional. It wasn't about anybody specific. You, on the other hand, want to play games and make it specific. Hence, no answer to your moronic question.
Fear is not a pretty thing.
And exactly what should I fear? .
Apparently you fear answering the question.
As a sensible question then. The one you ask isn't.
Use your head. DeSantis is doing exactly as I described - shutting down the liberal bullshit, do you really think I would call him a liberal? Again, it's a moronic question.
But if DeSantis is shutting down people that don't agree with his narrative, and you are saying that it is liberals that do that, then you are saying that liberal DeSantis is shutting down other liberals.
Your claim makes no sense. Are you claiming that Disney, which has donated to both DeSantis and Trump is a liberal organization???
Off hand, idiotic responses to what you wrote.
