Chief Justice Roberts wrote, "“A judicial system cannot and should not live in fear." Neither should election workers, police officers or whistleblowers. People exercising their constitutional right to have their voices heard should not be faced with AR - 15s and those who brandish them should not be pardoned. People driving down the street or taking a run through a neighborhood should not do so in fear of their lives.
Sooo disappointed in Roberts! Does he even realize the damage he is contributing to? He is undermining the credibility of The Supreme Court. I’m angry, I’m sad, I’m disappointed, erghhhh
There was a small church congregation meeting in a strip mall in my neighborhood. The “minister” was recorded saying if a child is disobedient they should be stoned. And he strongly urged the killing of lgbtq people! Some of my women’s club friends and I joined the protest against them. They’ve been evicted again and moved on. They were in a neighboring community. But so sad people were listening to him!
That "minister" has bible verses to back him up on the stoning, although he has to add some interpretation to get from the text to murdering lgbtq people. But that's hardly an excuse - the literal bible text also calls for killing adulterers, and for not eating pigs, and a lot of other things he surely does not practise. Plus it does call for befriending the stranger, which hateful preaching violates.
The bible nowhere equates a fetus or a fertilized egg with a child. That's a theological add-on from somewhere in later Christianity. You can tell whose Bible references for anti-abortion are hypocritical by looking at how they advocate for living children. Anyone opposed to helping all children have food, shelter, and safe schools (see gun safety vs proliferation) is not pro-life.
The bible considers the pregnant woman/person to be a person whose life should be preserved. That's something the so-called pro-life politicians ignore.

Where are the protections for them?

But he's very photogenic.
Erghhh…fascist central casting! Ha ha
Haha
Exactly. No other country has a proliferation of guns and gun violence outside a war zone as the United States.
Shootings are now the number one cause of death among children.
So much for following the Bible. It explicitly forbids child sacrifice.

In fact, there are 32 Bible Verses about Child sacrifice

In any event, know these are, also, used to justify the Anti-abortion position: "𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘴𝘰 𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 𝘴𝘢𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘰𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘯-𝘥𝘢𝘺 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.

Troll alert!
George T "Troll alert!"
I am unsure who you are referring to, me or
Joan Friedman (MA, from NY), but I was merely pointing out the (well, one of) current uses of those Bible verses. I have no opinion beyond that.
Joan has a valid (and well thought out) point of view that is shared by a large number of folks.
If you have found flaws in my (or Joan's) thinking, I would love to hear of them. Then I can understand who the "Troll" is.
