"We know what’s at stake. Over the last three years, women’s reproductive rights have come under attack in a way we haven’t seen in modern history. From Louisiana to Missouri to Texas, Republican legislatures are waging a war on women, all women, and they’re taking away fundamental rights. I want to tell you, Gorsuch, I want to tell you, Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price. You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions. The bottom line is very simple. We will stand with the American people. We will stand with American women. We will tell President Trump and Senate Republicans, who have stacked the court with right-wing ideologues, that you’re going to be gone in November, and you will never be able to do what you’re trying to do now ever, ever again. You hear that over there on the far right? You’re gone in November."
"Now, I should not have used the words I used yesterday. They didn't come out the way I intended to," Schumer said Thursday morning. "My point was that there would be political consequences, political consequences for President (Donald) Trump and Senate Republicans if the Supreme Court, with the newly confirmed justices, stripped away a woman's right to choose."
John Roberts better not become the new Kennedy because of these threats.
You can have whatever opinion on what the Schumer quote "YOU WILL PAY THE PRICE" means, and I would never call for your censorship you constitutional 1st amendment hater.
Do you think Chief Justice Roberts should personally apologize to you for calling your beloved Schumer's statements dangerous?
--> @oromagiEvery post "The Oro" posts is a strawman.I suggested that "The Oro" does not understand the constitutional right to hold an opinion on fake news headlines as a substitute for rational argument, only that "The Oro" has a responsibility to his fellow DARTers not to manufacture inciteful bullshit and pretend to report "the GP" opinions are news- a strawman argument that "The Oro" regularly lives up to. "The Oro" should apologize and request that all his strawmen posts be removed as false.There is no honest analysis of the statement, "you will pay the price" that implies revolution or weaponry from "The Oro". Those aspects "The Oro" invented out of whole cloth and may not be justified as a reasonable opinion, as "The Oro" continues to strawman opinions as fact.
What the FUCK is a "whirlwind" supposed to mean if not VIOLENCE?
I think that “armed revolt” might be a bit of a stretch.
But he [Schumer] is 100% lying in saying that he meant SCOTUS judges would suffer “political consequences”.
And considering how militant people can be about this issue, calling it a “right” and “healthcare” it is very likely that someone could construe this as requesting violence.

Normal people don’t use that word. I’d figure he may be referring to unilaterally attempting to impeach them both or something.
"This whole two-week effort has been a calculated and orchestrated political hit, fueled with apparent pent-up anger about President Trump and the 2016 election, fear that has been unfairly stoked about my judicial record, revenge on behalf of the Clintons and millions of dollars in money from outside left-wing opposition groups.""You sowed the wind for decades to come. I fear that the whole country will reap the whirlwinds. The behavior of several of the Democratic members of this committee at my hearing a few weeks ago was an embarrassment. But at least it was just a good old-fashioned attempt at Borking."
Here is the exact quote which, we should note, GP carefully fails to cite:
