I don't think SCOTUS justices look kindly on parties who file arguments that boil down to threats of "Rule in our favor, or ELSE!" Even left-leaning justices want to be respected for adhering to the rule of law (even if their conception of the law has a leftward bias), and do not want to be put in a position of having their opinions (whether majority or dissenting) tainted by the appearance of having caved to threats of mob violence.
