In anticipation of another round of mostly-peaceful protests no doubt, officials in D.C. are adding new fencing around the Supreme Court:

This is “tall, non-scalable” fencing:

It’s not a good look:

This new fencing is similar to the fencing that was put up around the U.S. Capitol:

We’ll put a marker down now and guess that any libs who scale the fence will not be treated as insurrectionists and such.
