Wade <\/em>would likely be overturned.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAbort the court! Abort the court!\u201d protestors chanted as they stood in front of the Supreme Court justice\u2019s home. The group of about 60 protestors was led by activists with ShutDownDC, a leftist group that frequently protests for progressive causes like abortion.<\/p>\n<p>The justice\u2019s home was guarded by members of both the Alexandria Police Department and the Fairfax County Police Department, The Daily Wire observed, who directed protestors to stay off the property and on the road.<\/p>\n<p>Multiple neighbors who joined the protest and spoke with The Daily Wire said that they supported the demonstration in the residential neighborhood. One of these neighbors, 77-year-old Aija Karlsons, used canes to walk up the street and join the protest.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am pro-choice because I really think that no one should dictate the woman\u2019s right about her reproductive \u2026 system,\u201d she told The Daily Wire ahead of the protest as a small group of media waited outside Alito\u2019s home.<\/p>\n<p>Asked if she thought the protest would make the Alito family feel unsafe, she responded, \u201cNo. That family? No.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s see how they do,\u201d she said. \u201cI do not condone going on the property, I mean, we are staying off the property right now, making our voices heard, he\u2019s not even home. But we have to show something, we can\u2019t be always neutral.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t want to go to the dark ages,\u201d she said with a chuckle.<\/p>\n<p>Karlsons also told The Daily Wire that she did not object to the doxxing of the justices\u2019 addresses by leftist groups, saying of pro-abortion rights protestors, \u201cThey\u2019re not going to be coming from all over the country.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Here at Justice Alito\u2019s home as protestors arrive <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/cNdjwPZt0F\">pic.twitter.com\/cNdjwPZt0F<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Mary Margaret Olohan (@MaryMargOlohan) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MaryMargOlohan\/status\/1523817542300622849?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 10, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Daily Wire observed several protestors completely dressed in black who complained about the lack of vehemence from the group they were demonstrating with.
