Earlier this week MSNBC-bound White House press secretary Jen Psaki was asked about a map showing the locations of conservative Supreme Court justices’ homes — you know, just in case somebody would want to protest there (nudge nudge). Psaki replied that the White House has no official position on that and wouldn’t encourage or discourage that kind of behavior.
Those who do decide to be incredibly creepy by protesting at the homes of SCOTUS conservatives are now being taught the lesson that if they do that, they risk having friendly profiles written about them in the Washington Post:
With Roe v. Wade on the line, Lacie Wooten-Holway — who has had an abortion and is a survivor of sexual assault — is protesting outside the home of her neighbor Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. https://t.co/qYfjRSmwq4

The Post seems to be hoping more join the protest party:
Neighbors tell her this kind of protest is disrespectful in a place they believe should be a private, family-friendly escape from Washington politics.
Other people cheer, saying they wouldn’t personally join but are encouraged to see someone speaking out. https://t.co/zph16ICvxL

Wooten-Holway has met Kavanaugh.
Even if she and the Kavanaughs don’t know each other personally, she thinks it’s important for him to hear that people in his own neighborhood vehemently disagree with him. https://t.co/zph16IkU9b

One thing’s for sure:
There is zero chance that the press would be cheering on this type of protest if it was targeting liberal Judges and everyone knows it. https://t.co/HHpURR28oG

The number of people in the replies to the Post’s tweets justifying this because they claim Kavanaugh is trying to get rid of “constitutional rights” by banning abortion is astounding (though not surprising since Dems and the media aren’t explaining the reality of the situation).
Same people that threw a fit when people did this in front of @MayorWu ‘s house are now cheering it. 🤷🏼♂️ https://t.co/LQAKdCazXW

A glowing profile for someone who protested outside of a Supreme Court Justice’s house. What could go wrong? https://t.co/otDSYCHWQK

What could possibly go wrong?
Protesting in front of someone’s home is never okay, I don’t care what the issue is. Trying to bully and pressure a Supreme Court justice, that’s never okay. Blame the democrats who left your “rights” in the hands of the courts. https://t.co/7fWTiFPGhj

This behavior should have been condemned by the White House but they weren’t about to go there and anger their most cherished pro-abort base.
