Christians are going to have to rise up or be driven underground by the Marxist Democrats.

the answer is: don’t pay the fine. make them arrest you. demand jury trial.

Have great friends in Nor Cal about 2 hours north of SF, the lady is from Portland really a sweetheart but the most socialist person I know but we can talk politics, she said this week she is ready to leave California because of how Newsome is handling things.

You have no ‘rights’ in democrat controlled areas.
Santa Clara county will NOT ISSUE CCW permits, unless you are a judge or big political donor.
Rights the vast majority of people take for granted are unavailable to me here in Santa Clara because of democrats, or should I call them ‘amoral degenerates’.

would this generate a lien against the church property?

also all california churches appear to be now required to convert into token commercial establishments (or token mosques). so another way to finesse it might be to do that. CEs would result in losing tax free status but at least remove government harassment until the next wave which imaginably would target christian bookstores and not even traitor roberts would allow that (or would he).

I hope North Valley sues the state. This is a mega church with lots of people and I think lots of influence.

So what. when the come to take the property don’t leave. Make them arrest you. drag you off (take photos). Come back, get charged with trespassing. Demand jury trial.

Rinse. Repeat.

Bottom Line: Stand Up. Stand for Something. Civil Disobedience. We are talking a clear violation of the First Clause of the First Amendment. Surrender is not an option.

jimjohn - OUT

They stopping Muslims from going to their mosques?

No, they don’t spread germs from their elevated butts, I guess.

If you get a moment, go to north valley baptist church web site and view the pastors response. He lays out a very compelling argument. I wish more churches would take a stand.

It’s my understanding that the First Amendment (among others) has been “incorporated”, meaning it applies to state governments as well as the federal government.
