Larry Klayman Calls For Beefed Up Security For Neil Gorsuch Since Antonin Scalia Was Deceased In A Very Mysterious Way
Right-wing attorney Larry Klayman uploaded a video to his YouTube channel yesterday calling on the U.S. Marshal Service to beef up its protection of newly sworn-in Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch because the justice who previously held that seat, Antonin Scalia, was deceased in a very mysterious way.
Klayman claimed that since Scalia mysteriously was found dead in his hotel room with a pillow over his head, which was very opportune for former President Obama, the Marshal Service must now protect Neil Gorsuch very carefully, especially since there is so much hatred being whipped up against President Trump by the left.
Gorsuch is at risk and they would love to see him gone, Klayman warned. Im very much worried not just about Justice Garland [sic] but the other four conservative justices on that court. The left will stop at no means and weve seen violence in the streets
[from] Black Lives Matter, whose supporters were knocking off and killing at least one cop a day until President Trump became president.

Once that seat was stolen I decided our country ceased to be the Democracy I was told it was.
Now I wonder what in the fuck are we going to do about it?

(82,849 posts)I mean, 78-year-old smokers of sedentary lifestyle and poor health habits live practically forever. For a guy to just keel over like Scalia did is unheard of!
It's a good thing Larry Klayman spotted this totally out of the ordinary anomaly! "They" would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for his meddling!

However, the bit about BLM knocking off cops is a particularly vile lie. There are only about 150 officer deaths in the line of duty per year. Only about a third to a half would be gunfire or some other form of violence. A large percentage are traffic accident related. BLM is not responsible for any of them but there are not even enough deaths to back up his accusation if they were.
It speaks to how divorced from reality he is.
Even if we were as evil as he thinks we are, what would be the point of bumping off a conservative justice when the control of the government is entirely in the hands of people who would appoint another right wing asshole. I guess he thinks we are evil AND stupid.
