Although Roberts sometimes tends to go with where the political winds are blowing, he has been on the right side for most important decisions.
On crushing people's constitutional rights with senseless, arbitrary diktats, I doubt if he is going to rule for crazy, tyrannical governors like Whitmer. She has made it quite easy for her opponents to win in court.

Disney has a Slut Factory?

How come I wasn’t told about this when I was in Orlando last year!

I miss out on so much...

This isn’t a court decision, the attorney general dropped the case saying; “the facts and circumstances revealed do not warrant prosecution at this time.”

The law still stands and police can continue to arrest people under it.

Worst GOP SCOTUS appointment ever!

Not even close. Warren and Blackmun were far worse, and were appointed by Eisenhower and Nixon.

It’s a game store and therefore essential to us gamers!

The non essential designation is arbitrary and wouldn’t even pass the 15th Amendment equal protection clause, much less the 14th Amendment Due Process clause.

I’ve argued from day one that these lock downs were not constitutional. I’ve taken a lot of flack from Fearpers who think that the constitution is trumped by orders from governors and health department idiots.

There are no non essential businesses. There are a lot of non essential bureaucrats and politicians. They should stay home while the rest of us go to work.

The entire concept of “non-essential business” or “non-essential worker” cannot exist in a free country. Once government has the ability to declare something essential vs non-essential, it will be abused to inflict economic harm on political enemies. See CA and other states labeling marijuana dealers “essential” while closing gun shops.

A higher court will uphold the law and the governor’s order.

These laws have been on the books for over a century and withstood many court cases.

Right or wrong.

How come this ruling doesn’t apply nationwide, like all those rulings against Trump?

When I hear the terms “Essential Jobs”, “Essential Workers” and “Essential Businesses”, I think of the classic “Twilight Zone” episode, “The Obsolete Man” .

We are on a dangerous slippery slope.

So am I understanding that the charges were dropped before the court could render a decision?

The case was dropped, so no ruling.

the hair-on-fire posters around here...

guilty as charged

The judicial review of what's been going on hasn't even got rolling good yet.

I hope you're right, but the establishment has a very poor record of relinquishing power it has seized.

Subject:: It’s not about your health!

“When the State tells you it’s safe to go to Home Depot to buy a sponge but dangerous to go and buy a flower, it’s not about your health.

When the State shuts down millions of private businesses but doesn’t lay off a single government employee, it’s not about your health.

When the State bans dentists because its unsafe, but deems an abortion visit is safe, it’s not about your health.

When the State prevents you from buying cucumber seeds because it’s dangerous, but allows personal lottery ticket sales, it’s not about your health.

When the State tells you it’s dangerous to go golf alone, fish alone or be in a motor boat alone, but the Governor can get his stage make-up done, and hair done for 5 TV appearances a week, it’s not about your health.

When the state puts you IN a jail cell for walking in a park with your child because it’s too dangerous but lets criminals OUT of jail cells for their health- It’s not about YOUR health!

When the state tells you it’s too dangerous to get treated by a doctor for chiropractic or physical therapy treatments yet deems a liquor store essential- It’s not about your health!

When the State lets you go to the grocery store or hardware store but is demanding mail-in voting, ITS NOT ABOUT YOUR HEALTH.

WAKE UP PEOPLE — If you think this is all about your health you’re mistaken! Please open your eyes! Stop being lead like blind sheep.”
