“Church small groups would be banned as well as other assemblies.”
Funny you should mention that; friends of mine lived across the street from a guy who basically ran a church from his home (in a residential neighborhood). It was obnoxious to have so many cars parked and double-parked all over the street, and nobody wants that mass of strangers wandering around their neighborhood (sometimes after dark). The guy eventually sold the home, but I would have had no problem if the town had stepped in and put an end to that nonsense.
Some state parks where I hike want you to get a permit if you have a group of 15 or more; I have no problem with that, considering what it does to the limited parking spaces available.
If these things weren’t impacting other people, I’d support telling the government to step off - but they do impact others. If they didn’t, the government would never know you’re in violation anyway.
