Lets review - The 1st amendment to the US Constitution, part of the cherished Bill of Rights:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

So “civil rights activists” now what the Police to cite people for protesting when the government doesn’t want them to. They had no problem with BLM, Anti-trump, Anti-Bush, etc. protests.

Just got off the phone with a friend in the Bay Area. He tried to buy stuff at the cashier at Safeway. He had his mask on backwards and they would not take his credit card. He complained and the store called the Sheriff. The Sheriff was there in minutes ... my friend had just left and saw the Sheriff pull up looking for him. So is that what Calif has come to ? Arresting someone for not wearing their mask in the approved way ?Can you say police state ?

Totalitarians on the march. Those stupids might want to rethink that. There is no legal mechanism that allows for the suspension of civil rights, not even under martial law.

The appropriate response is another much bigger protest.

President Trump sets them up and liberals take the bait.... every time! The expose themselves as the totalitarians they are AND the voters see it.

Nope. State criminal prosecution for protests is banned by the 1st and 14th Amendments. It is not only a violation of free speech, but also of the right to petition for redress of grievances. Only a proclamation of martial law by a state governor allows prohibition of petitions for the redress of grievances.

And the 14th Amendment was enacted AFTER the Civil War, so no judicial decisions prior to enactment of the 14th Amendment are controlling. AFAIK, there aren't any federal court rulings since the 14th Amendment's enactment on whether emergencies such as epidemics can be used by state or local governments to justify prohibition of petitions for redress of grievances.

So, at this time, the only justification for such a prohition that I know of is a proclamatiion of martial law by a state governor, though the latter can do so retroactively to justify actions taken by local authorities during the heat of a new emergency before a governor has time to consider the matter.

I’m just trying to see how this would fly in the courts. You’re punished for organizing a protest against a stay at home order by enforcing the stay at home order?

It’s not martial law, no one has suspended the constitution, and effectively it’s a 24 hour a day never ending curfew with no defined standards for when it ends. And issued by the unelected ‘county health officer’? They’re just making stuff up as they go along, and one day it will be considered by the federal courts and probably be found to be wanting.

Since the law presently offers freedom of movement for ‘essential tasks’, then I’d say quite clearly that exerting the most basic human right of protest against the government is absolutely an essential task and requires no permission from the government to do.

Remember all the arrests of the "Ferguson protestors" who blocked freeways around the country five years ago inconveniencing tens of thousands of cars and costing hundreds of thousands of hours of lost productivity? Atlanta, LA, San Diego and many other cities...

Nope. Neither do I.
