In a room full of senators for a supreme court hearing I highly doubt that he would be able to bring a knife in.

Oddly enough, they probably wouldn't let him bring a gun in either. Those are just for schools.

What if he went to shake his hand and he did one of those "oh no! too slow!" maneuvers? It would have been a national embarrassment.

Lesson: never shake anyone's hand.

Do SCOTUS appointees have the ability to bring people back to life?

What exactly was this stunt supposed to mean (also, Hogg has been the face of whatever this movement is, never heard of this guy prior)

I guess if your daughter is killed in a shooting, at least you can monetize it in cable TV compensation?

I would guess Kavenaugh has some pro-gun decisions out there? I don't know. I would just assume that if Parkland parents are showing up to protest.

And y'all will bend over backwards to avoid keeping your eye on the ball and according these distractions exactly as much attention as they're worth: zero.

It really would be something if this hearing could be used as an opportunity to discuss constitutional philosophy or judicial interpretation or the consequences of federalism's erosion on the tension between democracy and the judiciary or any number of ideas worth spending time and energy on.

But no. Cheap political theater is enough.

Also imagine being a part of the process to approve a United States Supreme Court justice, having finite time to speak, and coming out of the gate with “Who do you admire and why”

Where does Kavanaugh stand on the 4th Amendment? Is he one of these limited-government-until-it-comes-to-punishing-alleged-criminals types?
