I note in the example presented, a protest was planned, not a violent armed assault. So categorically, very different acts despite an underlying political motive.
I believe in a distinction between public and private life. Peaceful protest at government buildings is fine but I disagree with it at their homes. Before you ask, the WH is a govt building.
Legally it is illegal to use protest to try and influence a judges decision.
An additional issue is a peaceful protest can be used as cover by a violent actor.
The posting of lists is a form of doxxing and I'm against that too. It can get quite dangerous and who decides what's accurate or not etc. Easy to manipulate feeble minds to violence.
Verbally attacking a govt official in a public place like restaurants and airports is a gray area. Personally, I don't agree with it. Airports have security at least. The bigger issue here is if we are constantly creating aggressive confrontations that contributes to shifting norms towards laxity on violence.
[I note that recent protests at Justice Alitos house resulted in wine and cheese service provided by neighbors.]
