As I predicted, people are losing their minds. Threatening violence over the replacement of a SCOTUS justice is ridiculous.
People need to understand the process and understand it's not always going to go in their favor. Regardless of what side of the political spectrum you're on, roughly half the country will be on the other side. Sometimes your side will win, sometimes the other side will win.
Also, this stuff tends to be on a pendulum. It will swing back and forth. The left has a pretty good record when it comes to major court decisions in recent years (Obamacare, gay marriage, abortion, etc). It inevitably would swing back.
Finally, the court is unlikely to swing far right. Roberts, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh have shown themselves to be way more moderate than Alito and Thomas. I think that block will control the court for a while no matter who replaced Ginsburg.
Threatening violence for doing their constitutional duty.
