					<description><![CDATA[&quot;Is the State of California implementing a prior restraint on people&#039;s 1st Amendment rights in a manner that is not content neutral.&quot; 


Yes, this is just a rephrasing of my question.  and the answer is No they are not.  You have shown no cases where CA has ALLOWED indoor protests WITHIN ITS JURISDICTION to occur.  None.  Seattle doesn&#039;t count because it is outside the jurisdiction of CA.  

Indoors vs. Outdoors is not a false distinction.  it is just a false claim on your part.  No matter how many times you repeat a false statement, it won&#039;t make it true.]]></description>

&quot; Oh, we&#039;re meetin&#039; at the courthouse at eight o&#039;clock tonight
You just walk in the door and take the first turn to the right
Be careful when you get there, we hate to be bereft
But we&#039;re taking down the names of everybody turning left
Oh, we&#039;re the John Birch Society, the John Birch Society
Here to save our country from a communistic plot
Join the John Birch Society, help us fill the ranks
To get this movement started we need lots of tools and cranks
You cannot trust your neighbor or even next of kin
If mommie is a commie then you gotta turn her in,
Fighting for the right to fight the right fight for the Right&quot;

No.  Your question is constructed purposefully to avoid the actual legal standard.    You didn&#039;t construct it that way, you&#039;re just a sucker who believes the Marxist BS. 

The question is &quot;Is the State of California implementing a prior restraint on people&#039;s 1st Amendment rights in a manner that is not content neutral.&quot; 
They are. They&#039;re restricting church services while turning a blind eye toward racist protests.  

They and people like you are using a false distinction (i.e. indoors vs. outdoors) to rationalize the blatant violation of the Bill of Rights.   They know it, you don&#039;t.  You just believe their junk &quot;science&quot; because you are what they refer to us a &quot;useful idiot.&quot;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[large Indoor gatherings ARE NOT SAFE ANYWHERE!!!!!


Do you think the State of CA can enforce restrictions on gatherings in WA? 



The question is, is the state of CA using a double standard on indoor gatherings?  You have no evidence that it is.   No evidence that CA is enforcing the restrictions in a non-neutral way.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I recommend you not engage &quot;Fred Stevens.&quot; His Disqus profile shows he comments here (lucky us) and at Breitbart. Here&#039;s a selection of his pithy comments over in the Breitbart cesspool. (He&#039;s dangerously deranged.)



&lt;i&gt;Democrats are going to employ the biggest vote fraud scheme the world has ever seen. And the media will ignore it.


Democrats are subhuman. It&#039;s why they make varmint rounds.


[re: MI Gov Whitmer] She&#039;s a complete psycho. Just like Cuomo - she murdered the elderly in order to increase the body count. She is a mass murderer.


Don&#039;t lock them up. The marxists will just set them free again. End them permanently.


The enemy is identifying itself.
The enemy is gathering close together in large groups.
The enemy is not protecting its flanks.
Encircle the enemy.
Destroy the enemy.
Every single one of them should be eliminated.


They [BLM] all need to be terminated. Cut them down. Dig a big hole.


These &quot;protesters&quot; need to be $h0t. Peacefully, of course.


BLM should be cut down like the spring grass. Start in Portland. Then cut them down in every city in the country. &quot;News&quot; hosts like the one on MSNBC should experience their final broadcast on air.


Our enemy is identifying itself in the streets.
The enemy is unsophisticated and is gathering in tight groups.
The enemy is not watching its exposed flanks.
The enemy can be easily encircled and eliminated in each city with a small group of operatives.
Encircle. Destroy.


The Democrats have politically weaponized every branch of the US government. They stole the House of Representatives in 2018 by using ballot harvesting. They want to destroy this country.


Democrats are subhuman anti-American garbage.


Eliminate Democrats and we can end abortion.
Do you not understand the concept of “root cause?”&lt;/i&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Do you not understand that Seattle isn&#039;t in California?  Newsome has no authority to stop protests in another state.   So this isn&#039;t an example of an unconstitutional viewpoint bias.  



 Now I would agree that protest you showed is a bad idea and more likely to spread the virus (although at least most these protestors were wearing masks) than an outdoor one.  However, it has no bearing on the CA case.


CM has already addressed the distinction between being indoors and outdoors wrt the spread of the virus.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Name _one_ thing one this forum that I have stated that aligns with Marxist political theory and reference that particular specific belief within Marxism.  If you can&#039;t do that, then you are full of excrement.

I will make a prediction:  MacArthur will lose and SCOTUS will refuse to take the case.  They have already refused to take up other COVID related cases.

Why don&#039;t you go back to the Trump-fellating incestuous circle jerk they have over at Brietbart since it is where you came from? But then you are a troll, so it is best to ignore you.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[And you are incomplete about the spread of the virus.  For starters indoor locations use recirculated air which cannot filter out the virus.  This why so many people get colds and flu bugs on airline flights (recirculated air in a much smaller volume). 

Outside, the atmosphere disperses the virus aerosols quickly (and the UV and heat also serve to dry out and mitigate aerosols).  That is why there has been almost NO cases of people getting COVID from transmission outside (as long as sanitizing, cleanliness, and social distancing is used).  If you do identical people separation, mask-wearing, etc inside and outside and have the same exposure time, you will be more likely to get the virus inside.

Read up on computational fluid dynamics, aerosol science, and fluid mechanics first and get a clue.]]></description>
