They said it. I didn't.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Friday ruled that Democratic California Gavin Newsom's ban on in-person church services during the coronavirus pandemic can stand.
The lawsuit, filed by South Bay United Pentecostal Church in San Diego, prevents that church from reopening, according to the Los Angeles Times
The "constitutional standards that would normally govern our review of a Free Exercise claim should not be applied," wrote the two judges in the majority opinion.
"We're dealing here with a highly contagious and often fatal disease for which there presently is no known cure. In the words of Justice Robert Jackson, if a '(c)ourt does not temper its doctrinaire logic with a little practical wisdom, it will convert the constitutional Bill of Rights into a suicide pact,'" according to the opinion.
The ruling came from Judges Jacqueline Nguyen and Barry Silverman, Nguyen is an Obama appointee and Silverman, a Clinton appointee. The 9th Circuit has a longstanding terrible reputation, but this is a new low.
About the only thing Nguyen and Silverman didn't do is reference crying fire in a theater. Perhaps these two lefty scholars can point us to where the First Amendment states, "except in an emergency".
Are they proposing the suspension of the Bill of Rights until there's a cure. Which may never happen.
Bizarrely, the Democrat judges are quoting a minority dissent arguing that speech could be censored if it was inflammatory. Jackson was arguing that the authorities should have the right to stop Nazi supporters from saying racist things in public because it would lead to disorder and then America would go the way of Nazi Germany. Jackson was a great man, but wrong in this case. That he's being quoted by the majority in this ruling is troubling at best considering the original implications.

Oh,plus it’s the Ninth Circuit...seems to me that the decisions of that court always smell of ozone! LOL!
No, your not confused, but PRESIDENT TRUMP would need about 5 or 6 additional appointees to this court to make it majority conservative.

Thanking them,
God Bless them.

Good Words!

Something Important
Happens,
People need Church,

Don’t get me started
On that pesky
2nd Amendment thingy.
Socialism is
The True Virus
Here!
Why do YOU need the USSC to affirm your ABSOLUTE RIGHTS. That means you are willing to gamble them on the whims of 5 people. It is GO time people, if we are to save the country we MUST assert our Rights now.
If left unchecked these “deaths by a thousand leftist cuts” will destroy America turning it into some evil twisted version of Ireland which has gone so far left it’s no longer recognizable. Sad too because there was a time when it and its people were highly respected. No more and probably not in the foreseeable future.
There was an “attempted”
Raid yesterday at the
Cornerstone Baptist Church
In Chicago by 3 marked
Squad Cars full of Cops.
The doors were locked
and the Cops were Not

The Ninth requires an 11 member panel for an en banc hearing.
Look for that.
The court thus provides for a limited en banc review by the Chief Judge and a panel of 10 randomly selected judges.
We start with one Rapin Bill judge (the Chief POS), and then cut our luck on the remaining ten.
0.4 % of the symptomatic die...this is serious folks.
99% of those symptomatic are already hospitalized. We must protect the young amongst us and especially the religious.
Please continue to discontinue church services because most infected are already contained in hospital and only .4 % wont recover

TITLE 18, U.S.C., SECTION 242
DEPRIVATION OF RIGHTS UNDER COLOR OF LAW
Time for people in CA to just rebel and reopen...you can’t arrest everyone.
Isn’t liberalism great?
Well, I agree but don’t you think we should give the traditional means a chance before we turn to weapons?
Before my tagline said Jefferson’s “The tree of Liberty must, from time to time, be refreshed with the blood of Patriots.”
I believe that, but let’s give it a bit of time before we enter into a bloody Civil War. That was our bloodiest war ever.
And we are as divided as ever, maybe even more.
These rulings are based on the fact that by the time it gets to the SC the argument will be that the restrictions have been lifted so the case is moot.
