I agree with Justice Sotomayor that shooting criminals in self defense is an excellent idea!

Not seeing this anywhere else so far. Wondering if it's not accurate or that they tried to sit on it for a few days for the obviously bad optics.
 
Sounds like the incident didn't really have anything to do with the judge. This idiot just randomly picked the wrong car to try to jack...

Which is even a better example of why normal people need the RKBA. She wasn't targeted as a Supreme Court Justice, which would justify an armed escort, she was just being driven from point to point and was randomly targeted.

It eliminates the "these people need armed guards and you don't because of who they are" excuse.

Didn't one of Biden's secret service agents recently be the victim of a carjacking?
