ShutDownDC group plans 'blockade' at Supreme Court with 'jail support' on hand
ShutDownDC is planning to 'blockade' streets around the Supreme Court in light of a potential decision overturning Roe v. Wade

By Adam Sabes | Fox News

A left-wing group is hosting a "shut down SCOTUS" protest on June 13, with plans to "blockade" the streets surrounding the Supreme Court in light of a potential decision that could overturn Roe v. Wade being released.

The group, ShutDownDC, announced the protest on its website and states that it will begin at 7 a.m. on June 13 at Stanton Park in Washington, D.C.

As part of the "shut down SCOTUS" protest, the group will "blockade" the streets around the Supreme court, according to the website.

"On June 13, one of the Supreme Court’s 2022 decision days, we plan to blockade the streets around the Supreme Court to rise up for the transformative change that our communities need," the website states. "Right now our political system is in crisis. Times of crisis can either be opportunities to break through the inertia and win transformational change or they can be opportunities for the establishment to further entrench the status quo."

According to its website, the group chose June 13 since it is one of the Supreme Court's opinion issuance days.

The protest will consist of smaller "affinity groups" of up to 20 people per group, and each group will have a "jail support liaison who can meet arrested folks" when they are released.

When the Trucker Convoy announced their plans, the D.C. Police and D.C. Public Works,
U.S. Park Police blockaded every exit and/or turn that would provide
access to the Monuments and Courts.

It's so totally political, it's disgusting.

Don't mean to hijack the subject/event but in a reply...Either Glenn Beck with Bill O'Reilly
or Buck Sexton with Clay Travis came right out and 'accused' Pelosi and the Democrat
Leadership of 'wishing' the outcome of the attack on Justice Kavanaugh would have been
different.

Paraphrased: "The entire issue of Roe v Wade would go away. Plus, they can start moving against the 2nd Amendment in earnest".

It's more than "disgusting", @Kamaji

Nothing to see here, just Democrat-approved terrorism.
