California megachurch holds massive services for 7,000 people in defiance of social distancing orders - and says it will sue state officials over 100-person cap on indoor gatherings
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Pastor John MacAruthr hosted up to 7,000 worshipers at Grace Community Church in Los Angeles, California

  • Photos showed many attendees without masks and flouting social distancing

  • California only allows religious institutions to host 100 people, or 25 per cent of the building's capacity if lower, for church services during the pandemic

  • MacArthur has called this restriction 'burdensome' and claims California officials have targeted churches

  • MacArthur filed a lawsuit against Gov. Gavin Newsom and other officials this week

#3 In NC, the churches sued the governor over this nonsense and won. Their First Amendment argument should prevail in California as well. Should.
