Many bishops did not graciously accept Pope Benedict's generous Moto Proprio Summorum Ponticum and were reluctant to grant their priests permissions to celebrate the TLM.

Will these same bishops be the ones who enforce Beroglio's Traditionis Custodes like dictators?

The bishop of Little Rock, Ark, which covers the entire state has already shut-down the three indult Masses in the state, leaving only two FSSP chapels in the state, which are 200 miles apart, that will be allowed to continue celebrating the TLM.

Wow. The authoritarianism of the bishops is stronger than the pleas of the traditional laity.
