I want to see them try. Can you imagine the visual that will be of priests marching off to prison with handcuffs after saying Mass? I don’t think this is video that Obama would want to be seen. Even if the MSM doesn’t show it, you know Hannity would. Maybe even Ted Baxter.

In direct violation of the 1st Amendment.

I still can’t find any info on if mooselimbs are allowed to call and hold Friday prayers. It seems as if the “news” media just don’t want people to know anything.

1st Amendment?

What’s that?

We don’t do first amendments here in Obamaland.

Now shut your racist face and go pay your taxes. Your government is broke.

If not, Mercat, that is worse than being told you cannot. Who is your master?

Riders, horses, truck & trailers were raided at midnight in the Taledega National Forest where they were holding a PERMITTED & Paid for endurance 3 day event. ARMED NFS rangers , backed up by ARMED U S Marshals raided the camp & booted everyone out in the middle of the night.

These permits must be applied for & paid for at least 6 months in advance.

I cannot imagine how terrified these riders were being awakened & told to pack everything up & get out by armed Federal employees.

Obama is certainly acting like a very spoiled child.

i hope the ride manager sues to get their permit money returned. They had every right to be there.

My concern is more those who are carrying out BO’s orders.......this is showing Obam exactly who will or will not carry out what he says.
