GFY, none of that is legal. None of that has been declared.When the Constitution was written, there was no such thing as a global pandemic.Looks like some of our government officials haven't read the Constitution.

Are you a judge?
I cannot remember how many arguments I have had about how National Security trumps the constitution.....the events unfolding before my eyes prove I was right.
The clueless worshippers of the constitution seem to think the constitution fell down to earth from heaven.
Also as I have previously pointed out....numerous Presidents have violated it with impunity.
Irregardless.....the reaility is that the Constitution is only a set of ideas that give us guidance but if there is no one able or willing to enforce it.....just a piece of paper like george bush said....when he was accused of violating it.
The pastor is a complete idiot who has no value for life. This fact is exemplified by his actions. Arrest him? No. Shame him? Yes.
It was good he was arrested and fined.....he should have been sent to jail...he recklessly endangered lives and very possible deaths will occur because of his action.
Freedom of religion doesn't extend to public health emergencies. They should have raided the church during service, and arrested his selfish attendees as well.
Exactly......National Security Trumps the constitution any and every day of the week and year.
Wise up boyos! First things first.....if we have no state aka we let the state be destroyed by some religious like belief that we must always adhere to the constitution because the Lord himself wrote it ....of what value is the constitution....do you reall think that the
Chinese or whoever comes in and takes over will rescue your constitution from the ash-heap of history and hand it back to you englossed in gold and say........sure we will abide by the constitution.
Get real you moralistic morons....try and use some common sense.
Bullshit.............................
Emergency Powers
The Constitution does not expressly grant the President additional powers in times of national emergency. However, Presidents have claimed they have this power, often conflicting with the Supreme Court's interpretation of the extent of Presidential powers.
President Abraham Lincoln's suspended habeas corpus without Congressional approval in 1861, and he claimed he could do so due to emergency war powers. Lincoln claimed that the rebellion created an emergency that permitted him the extraordinary power of unilaterally suspending the writ. With Chief Justice Roger Taney sitting as judge, the Federal District Court of Maryland struck down the suspension in Ex Parte Merryman, although Lincoln ignored the order. 17 F. Cas. 144 (1861).
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt similarly invoked emergency powers when he issued Order 9066, placing Japanese Americans into internment camps during World War II. The U.S. Supreme Court upheld this order in Korematsu v. United States. 323 U.S. 214 (1944).
Harry Truman declared the use of emergency powers when he seized private steel mills that failed to produce steel because of a labor strike in 1952. With the Korean War ongoing, Truman asserted that he could not wage war successfully if the economy failed to provide him with the material resources necessary to keep the troops well-equipped. The U.S. Supreme Court, however, refused to accept that argument in Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer, voting 6-3 that neither Commander in Chief powers nor any claimed emergency powers gave the President the authority to unilaterally seize private property without Congressional legislation. 343 U.S. 579.
What happened there is UnConstitutional.
Harry Truman was a real American, who are you? Hmm?
Must conform to the leftist agenda or suffer arrest? Is that what's up?
Oh no! Nawsuh! Fuck that!
