With respect to the leaked opinion not yet written for ratification regarding the U.S. Supreme Court's revisiting the original decision of Roe v Wade, whence now nonstop protests have erupted in neighborhoods where U.S. Supreme Court justices live, exhibiting the firm intent to intimidate these officers of the highest court in the land: What action should the federal authorities take?
  Do nothing ... Protests are a fixture of a free society.
  Enforce the law ... Federal codes exist to prohibit any intimidation through the pubic harassment of federal judges, especially Supreme Court justices.
  I have no idea, however, northern Virginia School Board Members must be shielded from protests at all costs.

Walk Off the Earth has a new Christmas video, and short of accusing this extremely talented ensemble of being racist in this overly Politically Correct (PC) America, their rendition of "Feliz Navidad", a song made famous by Freddy Fender in 1977, is funny and definitely "in the Christmas spirit".
