re: Pastor Snell and Life Tabernacle feed 600+ needy children per week

The Constitution says "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."

Did Congress make a law? If not, turns out no rights are being violated, right?

Uh oh.

Your right...and go ahead explain what the executive branches role is in government.

Wait wait. We've been hearing about his "First Amendment Rights" being violated and "what the Constitution says."

Here's the 14th:

quote:

---

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; 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.

Need me to define "due process" for you, or are you going to contest a facially valid warrant?

See, when a moron engages in a plain language debate about the Constitution, it takes about 9 seconds for him to trip over his own dick.

I didn't say just the Constitution and it would be pretty much impossible to tell you what it says about the executive branch, if that was meant to be a gotcha moment, it wasnt.
I said the 1st is really damn clear. Yes Congress didn't make the law but it was never intended that the executive could issue orders as has become the practice.

I'm done arguing about it. My opinion is the Constitution is clear and it's a violation certain judges will see it my way some won't, we will see in the end as there will be plenty of lawsuits that come out of this.

Could be argued that they put enough people in danger to negate that

You've been responding to a century of rock solid case law with "the Constitution doesn't say that." Now you aren't really interested in the Constitution because it doesn't say what you need it to, and you need to add your opinion of "what was intended."

Zero judges will agree with you, by the way.

They're using the breakfast as bait to proselytize to them and create future donating members.

are you saying that a facially valid warrant issued pursuant to an unconstitutional statute is constitutionally valid?

Which statute is the warrant issued pursuant to? Which court ruled the statute invalid?

I was arguing a hypothetical based upon the emergency order, that’s all
