    Justices on the Colorado supreme court are receiving a barrage of death threats after it ruled to exclude Donald Trump from the state’s presidential ballot next year because of his attempts to cause insurrection.

    A report compiled by Advance Democracy, a non-partisan non-profit organization, said there was “significant violent rhetoric” against the justices and Democrats on social media, according to NBC News.

    Some of the worst of it was posted on fringe websites, including one post that said “behead judges” and “slam dunk a judge’s baby into the trash can”.

    Another post on The Donald, a pro-Trump forum where a Trump supporter once publicly bragged about his involvement with the January 6 insurrection and was arrested as a result, said “this ends when we kill these ****ers”.

    _________________________________________

    This summer, Texas police arrested a charming MAGA who made death threats against Judge Chutkan.

    Paul Pelosi was almost killed with a hammer by a MAGA totally intoxicated by conspiracy theories.

    The 1/6 riot.

    And now, pro-Trump threatens Colorado Superior Court judges....

    Are you getting to be scared?

    Which shows the intelligence of those idiots - make the death threat AFTER the decision. It is not like that will actually change the decision

    There's a MAGA or several somewhere planning an attack.

    There's no way the FBI is watching them all.

    Many of them openly want civil war.

    Of course they did. It's all part of the master plan. Once we can make up a good enough story that "proves" everyone that supports Trump is a domestic terrorist Nazi we can start throwing them in jail and take their stuff. It's the only way to preserve democracy!

    That would have been great sarcasm 5 years ago...

    Anybody who threatens a judge deserves just that...

    I'm always scared around Right Wing gun experts.


    I know that's only a side point. I find it unbelievable that tRaitor tRump and his supporters claim to love America and it's Constitution when, at every opportunity, they prove they don't.

    Gee disenfranchise voters and then scratch your heads about why they are angry. Democrats would never react negatively if conservative justices in a purple state removed the Democrat candidate for President from the ballot. The purity and justness of the left are a shining example to us all.

    Hey AJ, as I recall, you're a Michigan guy..... Hear about Mango threatening election workers in your state, with a Raffensperger-like recording as proof??

    Good stuff.... I posted a link in the "Jack Smith goes to SCOTUS" thread, but I assume somebody will open a new thread on this... Certainly worthy of one...

    The left set the precedent with all of the harassment of the US supreme judges when R v W leaked. I told you folks this was gonna happen. Whatever horrible dishonorable tactics on the left happens to use they will eventually trickle to the right. SLEEP IN THAT BED YOU MADE. Or lay in it awake so you can be nice and comfy to watch the biden crime syndicate impeachment (ya'll brought that one on yourselves as well!)
    Being right all the time sure gets tiring!

    If….IF…any of those people actually exist, then yes, they are as imbecilic as the MAGAts threatening to kill judges’ babies…

    So, shall we condemn ALL such threats…?

    Two points…

    1. Threatening to “slam dunk a baby into a trash can” is just a tad more serious than being “angry”, don’t you think…?
    2. Please give evidence of a Democrat politician who has supported an insurrection…?

    That irresponsible Republican congressman should never have stood on the steps that day and incited the mob by saying that the justices would reap the whirlwind....oh wait...

    Let us know when a republican congressman incites mobs to demonstrate outside of the homes of justices after telling them that they won't know what hit them and they will reap the whirlwind...

    Get back to us when that happens okay?

    Let’s suppose that happened…

    Did your mother not teach you that two wrongs don’t equal a right…?

    All this shows that there is a serious deterioration of society and important norms.And that is a tragedy of massive proportions.

    Violence has become more pronounced with the MAGA contingency due to the verbal violence from their dear leader. But in general Violence is an American problem. ( both political groups have played a part..) No other nation , unless it is a war zone , has as much verbal and physical violence. There is NO need for silly threats. Achieves nothing except to make the situation toxic.

    That was not "truth". That was one persons prejudicial biased opinion. Based on the "rhetoric of DJT"

    It's almost like you don't remember the doxing of supreme Court justices home addresses and their children's schools and the mobs gathering out in front of their homes
