I’m sorry but I cannot, will not, concede power or authority over me to such a court. Period. Full stop.
Even more important than private business, business or not, it is a direct violation of both freedom of speech and freedom of religion.
This is how Ca thinks. If they grant you the license and “privilege to operate a business”, then you have to relinquish all of your personal constitutional rights to do so.
It’s even worse than going in the service, It renders you property of the state with absolutely no rights or amendment process.
Bush.
Uh huh. Koloradians liked it when the Kalifornians showed up to pay top dollar for real estate. Turns out the house guest was old scratch himself.
They can bite a hog. If asked, I will tell people about Christmas, and say Merry Christmas and God Bless you without being asked.
Gosh the media sucks so bad.
Their religious beliefs are not even the issue. The 1st Amendment to the Bill of Rights is the issue. It says in pertinent part “Congress shall make no law... prohibiting the free exercise [of religion].. or abridging the freedom of speech”. The 1st amendment applies to all the states.
This judge is simply wrong and should be overturned on appeal.
I think Trump and McConnell have done away with the Blue Slip process. See https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/press/dem/releases/feinstein-urges-return-to-blue-slip-tradition
Colorado used to be a good state to live in.

They only did away with it for Appeals court judges... NOT for District Court judges.
Sorry, but this story makes no sense as written.
Can somebody post what was in front of the court (what was the case or controversy), what the law(s) involved were, and what the decision actually said?
Patriots are reminded that the states have given Congress the express 14th Amendment (14A) power to make penal laws that discourage state actors from abridging constitutionally enumerated protections, freedoms of religious expression and speech in this example.
"Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
"Section 5: The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article."
H O W E V E R…
We are still stuck with a worthless Congress left over from the lawless Obama Administration that will predictably continue to sit on its hands while activist state actors and federal judges let renegade, anti-Christian states get away with oppressing citizens who value and exercise their freedom of religious expression.
The remedy for constitutional failed federal and state governments…
Patriots need to elect a new patriot Congress in the 2020 elections that will not only promise to fully support PDJT's outstanding work on MAGA, now KAG, but also consider this.
New lawmakers also need to promise to exercise their express 14A power to make laws that discourage state actors from abridging constitutionally enumerated protections.
Also regarding 14A:
Patriots who value their constitutionally enumerated protections of freedom of religious expression and free speech, consider that Acts 22:25-29 shows that Apostle Paul got out of a flogging by claiming his Roman citizenship.
UC Berkeley relatively recently had to pay compensation under 14A concerning abridging 1st Amendment free speech protections.
UC Berkeley settles landmark free speech lawsuit, will pay $70,000 to conservative group
Problem is that taxpayers, not Berkeley offending state actors, will probably pay compensation.
Remember in November 2020!
MAGA! Now KAG! (Keep America Great!)
I see. Thanks for clarification.
Before she posted her Statement and before any enforcement action was taken (or even threatened) against her, Ms. Smith and 303 commenced this action seeking a declaratory judgment that both the Accommodations Clause and the Communications Clause of C.R.S. § 24-34-601(2) violated her rights under the Free Speech and Free Exercise clauses of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and the Equal Protection and Due Process clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment. This Court subsequently found that Ms. Smith could not demonstrate standing sufficient to support her challenge to the Accommodation Clause. Thus, the Court dismissed the claims directed at that clause, leaving only Ms. Smith's challenge to the Communications Clause.
So, what the ruling was about was the use of a lawsuit FILED BY SMITH to create standing where standing had already been denied.
The law that says persons cannot publish advocacy declaring their intent to violate the law is probably unconstitutional, but unless or until Smith violates that law and Colorado attempts to impose consequences, there is no case or controversy.
Nobody can file suit in a Federal court seeking to overturn a law they haven't violated or been accused of violating. If the courts heard suits like that, they wouldn't be doing anything else.
“”bans business owners from freely expressing in public their religious beliefs about marriage and homosexuality.””
Me too. If someone is not speaking AS A BUSINESS OWNER - just a conversation with someone in public, he can’t express his religious beliefs? In whose world?

Sorry!!!!
Americans need to embrace civil disobedience on these things and not follow the rulings.
If anyone deserves to be impeached it’s that judge.
Sieg Heil
