As worshippers poured into Godspeak Calvary Chapel for a 9 a.m. service, a crowd swelled outside with those rallying in support of the church clashing with counter-protesters.

Video showed an unmasked man holding an American flag facing off with another man in a mask who was carrying a sign that read: “God can hear you from Home! Don’t be Freedumb.”

The masked man taps the sign on the other man’s head, prompting him to pull the sign away, starting a scuffle that ended with a woman being kicked to the ground.

Ventura County sheriff’s Capt. Eric Buschow said about 100 to 150 people were gathered outside, and several “minor scuffles” broke out during the protests. But no injuries were reported, `and no one was arrested.

Those rallying in support of the church could be seen holding up signs with phrases such as “1st amendment right to assemble” and “stop the tyranny,” while counter-protesters’ signs included one that read: “This church endangers us all.”

The vast majority appeared to be there to support the church.

Oh no, you cannot go to church in the USA. But people protest and spit on cops and they are not arrested. But how dare they go to church. They will all be arrested and put in prison.

Exactly- You nailed it-

I’ll just add that they then turn on the Christians and shame them- saying things like “You must not care about the elderly if you insist on Worshiping God during a pandemic- (Then they will falsely play the ‘good guy again’ by saying something like “Noone is saying you can’t worship, or saying you shouldn’t- we’re just saying not during a pandemic- for your own safety and the safety of others)- If you don’t agree- then some Christian you are!”

Satan and those that follow Him, either consciously, or subconsciously, are such blatant hypocritical sneaky deceivers- Sadly many people that call themselves Christians will fall for it- and will even join in with the shaming of True Christians

They weren’t ‘counter protestors’. They weren’t even protestors. They were an angry hateful violent mob... just itching to jump into action by physically assaulting anyone that didn’t agree with their agenda and stood up to them

This is the same visceral hatred of social rule breakers that leads Muslims to beat women who don’t wear hijab or violate other social norms.

They keep saying that word. I don't think it means what they think it means.

A lot of that going around. There is no thinking, only mindless indoctrination and mob rule. When I read books like "1984", "Brave New World", "Animal Farm" and others dealing with the destruction of society and loss of individual rights, I never imagined it would happen in 2020. Yet here we are. Meanings of words are twisted away from their true meaning, by twisted individuals caught up in mob mindless anarchy. It is going to get worse...
