As many of you know in the State of Nevada churches are not allowed to have more than 50 people in attendance however, casinos are allowed to operate at 50% capacity. In July, the Supreme Court ruled that Nevada is allowed to impose tighter restrictions on churches than casinos thanks to Chief Justice Roberts who sided with the liberal judges.

A great creative solution that follows the current “rules” and really puts the governor to shame. His anti-Christian bias is so exposed that everyone can see it.
Looks like the casino was fined $250.00....LOL
“””Looks like the casino was fined $250.00....LOL”””
Boy, that’s gonna sting.
Per the article, the hotel (held a Trump event) was fined $250, not the casino.
GWB, the gift that keeps giving.
A PEACEFUL protest.
What the hell is the “New Sthud” blog and why did you only post two sentences? They didn’t write this story. Here is the rest. Now it’s not clickbait.

As many of you know in the State of Nevada churches are not allowed to have more than 50 people in attendance however, casinos are allowed to operate at 50% capacity.
In July, the Supreme Court ruled that Nevada is allowed to impose tighter restrictions on churches than casinos thanks to Chief Justice Roberts who sided with the liberal judges.
USA Today reported:
“
Lawyers for the state had argued that religious services require tougher limits than commercial establishments because of their duration and close quarters. They said other venues, from movie theaters to museums, faced the same 50-person limit.
“Sadly, the types of communal, interpersonal gatherings that put Nevada citizens most at risk for spreading the virus include larger, in-person religious services – which are a major source of COVID-19 infections,” the state’s lawyers said.
The high court’s earlier ruling on the issue came on May 29, when Roberts sided with the liberal justices in a ruling against California’s South Bay United Pentecostal Church. Roberts said choosing when to lift restrictions during a pandemic is the business of elected officials, not unelected judges.
However, a viral video has appeared on the internet that shows the group “Evangelicals For Trump” holding a worship service in a casino. The place was packed however was in compliance with the guidelines because the event took place inside a casino that was operating at 50% capacity.
“
Packed house at #EvangelicalsForTrump prayer & praise event in Las Vegas. NV Governor banned church services but casinos can operate at 50% capacity. So we are praying in a casino.

Our churches have been shut down for FIVE months.
In Nevada, you can go to a casino but you can’t have more than 50 people at church.
Well tonight, HUNDREDS of us brought church to the casino with #EvangelicalsForTrump in Las Vegas.

Gov. Sisolak’s was furious and called the event at the Las Vegas Ahern Hotel “callous and dangerous.”
“
I was deeply disheartened and dismayed to see the callous and dangerous behavior displayed last night in Las Vegas at a campaign event for President Trump. (1/7)

The scorned governor ensured the hotel was fined a whopping $250 civil penalty, but will not lose any licenses.
For what? If they were within the 50% capacity rule, what were they fined for?
Probably because they had the audacity to use that 50% for a religious gathering..........LOL
A Gamblers Anonymous meeting.
Could be just about anybody.
Appears to be a news consolidator (a la Drudge) with an address out of London. The address is a place that does ‘virtual office rental’ so you look like a legit business with real address.
I’d like to restrict John Robert’s ability to breathe.
Add the following:
Nevada Goivernor Sissy Pants
DeBlasio
Andrew Cuomo
Nancy Pelosi
Gavin Newsom
Seattle mayor
Portland Mayor
Minnesota Governor
Minneapolis Mayor.
.....................
Roberts = new Warren (anti-God/anti-America in soul and spirit)
Anyone or group trying to get the governor kicked out of office or tried on various unethical conduct charges?
The American underground church got busted.
