They demonstrated outside of Barrett&#8217;s residence for just 10 minutes, the news outlet said, before they departed the Falls Church, Virginia, neighborhood.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s none of their business, why are they are here?&#8221; said a neighbor who spoke to a reporter. He also affirmed that it was &#8220;inappropriate&#8221; to protest outside Barrett&#8217;s home.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They have the right to protest but not in front of someone\u2019s house. They live here\u2014 this is where she lives,&#8221; he added. &#8220;They shouldn&#8217;t be doing this.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The man then offered the protesters blunt advice. &#8220;Go home and get a family,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<div id=\"f0913\" class=\"rm-shortcode\" data-rm-shortcode-id=\"43b7288330d2c91a1366daae40bc0bc0\">\n<div class=\"rm-embed-container rm-embed-twitter rm-loading\">\n            <span class=\"rm-embed-spacer rm-embed-spacer-mobile\"><\/span><br \/>\n            <span class=\"rm-embed-spacer rm-embed-spacer-desktop\"><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rm-embed-holder\">\n<blockquote class=\"rm-embed twitter-custom-tweet\" data-twitter-tweet-id=\"1524536276355104769\" data-partner=\"rebelmouse\">\n<p>Spoke with one of Justice Barrettu2019s neighbors.
