Violence could occur 'for weeks' from extremists in wake of Supreme Court decision: DHS
"We expect violence could occur for weeks following the release, particularly as DVEs may be mobilized to respond to changes in state laws and ballot measures on abortion stemming from the decision," the bulletin, dated June 24, said."We base this assessment on an observed increase in violent incidents across the United States following the unauthorized disclosure in May of a draft majority opinion on the case," the bulletin said.
DHS also assesses that federal judges and state government officials could likely be the target for violence ins response to the court's decision. The department also cites the recent arrest of a California man who traveled to the Washington area to"Americans' freedom of speech and right to peacefully protest are fundamental Constitutional rights. Those rights do not extend to violence and other illegal activity," the spokesperson said."DHS will continue working with our partners across every level of government to share timely information and to support law enforcement efforts to keep our communities safe.
