Merrick Garland’s shameful inaction: Failure to prosecute pro-choice extremists is indefensible

When left-wing extremists vow to achieve their goals “by any means necessary,” believe them.

They’ve made that shockingly, appallingly clear in the seven weeks since May 2, when Politico reported on a leaked Supreme Court draft opinion of the pending ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, an abortion-related case that could overrule Roe v. Wade.

Since then, pro-choice extremists — groups with names like Jane’s Revenge and Ruth Sent Us — have been protesting menacingly outside the homes of Justices Samuel A. Alito Jr. (who authored the draft opinion), Brett M. Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett, and of Chief Justice John G. Roberts’. That’s in flagrant violation of Title 18, Section 1507, a federal law that criminalizes parading or picketing in front of the homes of judges with the intention of influencing the outcome of pending litigation…

On Thursday, just one day after the Senate GOP letter to Mr. Garland, a coalition of 25 pro-life, religious and conservative public-policy groups sent the attorney general a letter of their own, demanding action in the face of dozens of instances of pro-choice terrorism and intimidation. These include documented cases of graffiti, firebombing and other forms of violence and vandalism against pro-life groups, pregnancy resource centers and churches.
