If it was serious enough to force Alito & his family to vacate and find another place, that's more serious than a candlelight vigil. It is more serious. But still not in a class with a coup. Had they burned his house down, it still wouldn't be in a class with a coup. You have always categorized 1/6 as a protest and then compared it against other protests on the basis of amount of violence. It's appropriate to rank protests based on amount of violence. But 1/6 was not just a protest. It was a different category of thing. And the coup category trumps the protest category in terms of big deal, aka proportion.

We're still going to have abortions in almost all -- if not all -- states. You miss the point. On a practical level it's about abortions. But the underlying and critical element is a woman's standing to make a moral choice. Think Hobby Lobby. the truth is it is a pretty minor thing The denial of liberty is never a minor thing.
