Abortion is a topic that the left has lost its way. It’s not even clear that all the people understand that no, abortion wasn’t banned by the overturning of Roe v. WadeThis means the decisions are now up to the States. They don’t care about facts, but they do matter.
While these folks are claiming they are “pro-choice,” they are anything but. If they were “pro-choice,” they would be in favor of crisis pregnancy centers that are trying to help pregnant women. People on the left oppose such centers and some of the most radical have firebombed them. You are not free to choose the things they wish you to. Of course, that’s not true just about abortion, but about all the liberal narratives.
You will be subject to retaliation if you don’t do as they ask. This has happened with some justices of the Supreme Court.
Radical protesters have not only been targeting the justices at their homes, but this week, they also harassed Justice Brett Kavanaugh and other diners at Morton’s The Steakhouse restaurant in D.C., as we reported. Kavanaugh was forced to escape through the backdoor in order to ensure his safety. Morton’s issued a great statement saying they weren’t going to stand for harassing Kavanaugh and the other diners with their actions–that it was just wrong and people had the right to eat in peace.
… “Politics, regardless of your side or views, should not trample the freedom at play of the right to congregate and eat dinner. There is an appropriate time and place to do everything. Disturbing the dinner of all of our customers was an act of selfishness and void of decency.”

For people like the radicals on this issue, this was like waving a red cape in front of a bull, even though Morton’s didn’t say anything about abortion. Their diners were being protected, and they did so as they should. But the left then turned on Morton’s and resolved to hurt them for their “choice” of defending the peace of their diners.
Yelp reviews were negative for some of the restaurants. The group also tried to make reservations for restaurants all across the nation through Open Table, but then they didn’t show up. This was to try to get the restaurant to lose money. Some tweets about this were taken by Twitchy (our sister site).

What was funny from that particular account was that the Twitter user was upset that Morton’s caught on to what was being done and filed reports on people for no-shows, so it was going to boomerang against anyone who engaged in the effort.
As our Lie-able Sources podcast account pointed out, this effort wouldn’t change the result of the politics, it would just hurt the people who can least afford to be hurt because of Bidenflation — the service workers in the restaurants.
You did a great job. By taking action at a restaurant where not one political activity will be altered, you positively impacted workers’ incomes. https://t.co/yzWXzwwlFp

It was this tweet that was being replied to. This tweet has since been removed.

As we reported, the radical direct action group ShutDown D.C. — which has been involved in a lot of leftist protests over the past few years — may have been connected to the action at Morton’s, and have now put out bounties for people in the service industry to tip them off, if they see any of the conservative justices.
🚨🚨The badasses @OurRightsDCHe and his neighbours are outside #Kavanaugh’s home, the justice seems to have snuck out for a swanky DC dinner. We got a tip from someone who spotted him around 7:40 🚨🚨DM us if you want to join him…we’re sure he can pull up a seat!

DC Service Industry Workers… If you see Kavanaugh, Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch, Coney Barrett or Roberts DM us with the details!
For a confirmed sighting, we’ll pay $50 and $200 respectively. https://t.co/xXWZ5JZiE7

It is a shameful attempt to undermine the Court’s independence by trying to protest justices wherever they are. The Biden Administration has yet to condemn these kinds of actions against the Court, indeed, as we reported, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre called them “democracy.” But these actions wouldn’t change the Court’s approach; it will only show how the left — once again — wants to throw all norms under the bus.
But you’re not necessarily dealing with people who are looking at this with any kind of sense.

As the Women’s March event marched toward the White House, one attendee confronted a group of anti-abortion activists yelling at the crowd and mocked them by yelling “we love killing babies!”

Some of these people consider abortion their sacrament.
