In a 5-4 decision Friday, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s guidance to restrict religious gatherings.

The court denied injunctive relief for South Bay United Pentecostal Church. Justices cast significant doubt on the church’s case, siding with state guidelines that limit attendance in places of worship to 25% or a maximum of 100 attendees.

Over the dissent of the four more conservative justices, Chief Justice John Roberts joined the court's four liberals in turning away a request from the church, based in Chula Vista, California, in the San Diego area.

The church argued that limits on how many people can attend their services violate constitutional guarantees of religious freedom and had been seeking an order in time for services on Sunday. The church said it has crowds of 200 to 300 people for its services.

Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote in dissent that the restriction “discriminates against places of worship and in favor of comparable secular businesses. Such discrimination violates the First Amendment.” Kavanaugh pointed to supermarkets, restaurants, hair salons, cannabis dispensaries and other businesses that are not subject to the same restrictions.

Roberts wrote in brief opinion that the restrictions allowing churches to reopen “appear consistent" with the First Amendment. Roberts said similar or more severe limits apply to concerts, movies and sporting events “where large groups of people gather in close proximity for extended periods of time.”

Roberts has never seen a governmental power he didn't want broadened.

Another unflushable Bush era turd.

I think the poor guy just wanted an excuse to portray the hungry lions as victims. And just liked drawing the cats.

I enjoy simulating death repeatedly. Was born to it. It's like the only thing aside from holding a rifle in my arms that I truly love. Actually I don't love anything but my neurons are very use to reflex.

I do not know where you live, but I am not going to argue with you about what your mom's basement contains.

You have to admit it would be a pretty slick print though, eh?
