newspunch--2020-06-28--Federal Judge Rules Bill de Blasio and Andrew Cuomo Violated Religious Freedom

A federal judge has issued a preliminary injunction against New York Mayor Bill de Blasio and Governor Andrew Cuomo for violating the First Amendment after they banned religious services during the coronavirus outbreak .
In issuing the order , U.S. District Judge Gary L. Sharpe pitted words by Cuomo and de Blasio surrounding George Floyd protests against words by both Democrat politicians which strictly limited religious gatherings .
Lawandcrime.com reports : The order , by Senior District Judge Gary L. Sharpe , a George W. Bush appointee to the federal bench in the Northern District of New York , is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ institutions to reopen .
It merely pegs faith gatherings and functions to the same “ Phase 2″ standards which apply to other industries ( with required social distancing measures ) and allows outdoor gatherings ( again with similar social distancing measures ) .
Yet the order also reads like a grievance against blatant hypocrisy .
Included in the document are pages of blow-by-blow descriptions of Cuomo ’ s vacillating executive orders and guidance documents on whether religious institutions were or were not allowed to open .
One guidance document included “ worship services @ @ @ @ @ @ @ remain closed and are not eligible for designation as an essential , ” the judge said .
A subsequent guidance said “ houses of worship are not ordered closed ” but “ strongly recommended ” that “ congregate services ” not be held ( internal punctuation removed ) .
The judge ’ s opinion referenced yet another subsequent guidance which continued to list “ worship services ” among the things which — again — “ must remain closed ” : Congregate services within houses of worship are prohibited .
Houses of worship may @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where appropriate social distancing of , at least , six feet between people can be maintained .
Further , individuals should not gather in houses of worship , homes , or other locations for religious services until the end of this public health emergency .
If possible , religious leaders should consider alternative forms of worship , replacing inperson gatherings with virtual services , such as phone or conference calls , videoconference calls , or online streaming .
The most recent health documents indicate that some businesses are being allowed to reopen to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up to 150 people are being allowed .
In other words other functions were being allowed .
So were protests over the Minneapolis police killing of George Floyd .
Here ’ s how the judge summed up Cuomo ’ s views on that topic : During a press conference held on June 1 , 2020 , when asked if he would “ suggest people not go out and protest , ” Governor Cuomo answered : “ No , I think you can protest , but do it smartly and intelligently .
.
.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ country .
Protest .
Just be smart about it .
With this virus , you can do many things now as long as you ’ re smart about it , right ?
You can reopen , you can go into a store and you can do a lot of things , just be smart.
” During another press conference three days later , Cuomo was asked why he was allowing restaurants to open for limited capacity , but not outdoor graduation ceremonies .
The judge zeroed in on these comments from the governor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Cuomo said : “ I want to thank the protestors .
.
.
.
I stand with the protestors on the point that we need meaningful reform.
” The judge similarly chided Mayor de Blasio for attending a George Floyd gathering “ without a mask ” which did not following the same distancing measures he placed upon religious gatherings .
The plaintiffs included an eclectic mix of Catholic and Jewish leaders who were unable to fulfil the commandments of their faiths due to the restrictions placed upon them by the government , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ order explicitly goes further than the U.S. Supreme Court ’ s May 29 decision to reject an attack on coronavirus orders by a California church .
That high court opinion articulated an “ especially broad ” executive power where a novel virus poses risks “ fraught with medical and scientific uncertainties.
” Sharpe said time has brought the matter into focus , legally speaking : Having carefully reviewed the relevant issues , and with a firm understanding that the executive branch response to the pandemic has presented issues with a degree of complexity @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it is plain to this court that the broad limits of that executive latitude have been exceeded .
That is not to say that Governor Cuomo or Mayor de Blasio have utterly failed in their reaction to COVID-19 .
To the contrary , the State of New York , at the moment anyway , is among the best situated states in terms of infection and mortality rates .
While there is more clarity every day with respect to the best practices for slowing the spread of COVID-19 , there is wide and reasonable @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and regulations to achieve those ends , and , as is particularly present in this case , even more so with respect to reopening in a way that promotes safety , economic viability , and the enjoyment of all the rights that the people of this country and the State of New York are guaranteed .
As the Chief Justice recognized in Newsom , it is not the judiciary ’ s role to second guess the likes of Governor Cuomo or Mayor de Blasio when it comes to decisions they make in such @ @ @ @ @ @ @ those decisions result in the curtailment of fundamental rights without compelling justification .

Three Orthodox Jews and two Catholic priests joined forces earlier this month to file a lawsuit against the officials alleging their religious liberty was violated under the First Amendment (and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment). JOIN THE FIGHT: BECOME A CITIZEN JOURNALIST TODAY!
Lawandcrime.com reports: The order, by Senior District Judge Gary L. Sharpe, a George W. Bush appointee to the federal bench in the Northern District of New York, is not a carte blanche win for religious institutions to reopen. It merely pegs faith gatherings and functions to the same “Phase 2″ standards which apply to other industries (with required social distancing measures) and allows outdoor gatherings (again with similar social distancing measures). Yet the order also reads like a grievance against blatant hypocrisy. Included in the document are pages of blow-by-blow descriptions of Cuomo’s vacillating executive orders and guidance documents on whether religious institutions were or were not allowed to open.

If possible, religious leaders should consider alternative forms of worship, replacing inperson gatherings with virtual services, such as phone or conference calls, videoconference calls, or online streaming.
The most recent health documents indicate that some businesses are being allowed to reopen to 50-percent capacity and that outdoor graduations of up to 150 people are being allowed. In other words other functions were being allowed.
So were protests over the Minneapolis police killing of George Floyd. Here’s how the judge summed up Cuomo’s views on that topic:
During a press conference held on June 1, 2020, when asked if he would “suggest people not go out and protest,” Governor Cuomo answered: “No, I think you can protest, but do it smartly and intelligently. . . . There were protests all across the country. Protest. Just be smart about it. With this virus, you can do many things now as long as you’re smart about it, right? You can reopen, you can go into a store and you can do a lot of things, just be smart.”
During another press conference three days later, Cuomo was asked why he was allowing restaurants to open for limited capacity, but not outdoor graduation ceremonies. The judge zeroed in on these comments from the governor:
What difference does it make? . . . The issue is a public health issue and you don’t want people sick and dead. . . . It’s about death, it’s about balancing the risk versus the reward, balancing the desires and wants versus the consequences.
In the same press conference, Cuomo said: “I want to thank the protestors. . . . I stand with the protestors on the point that we need meaningful reform.”
The judge similarly chided Mayor de Blasio for attending a George Floyd gathering “without a mask” which did not following the same distancing measures he placed upon religious gatherings.

Breitbart.com reports: In an update on its website at 11:40 p.m., the Beverly Hills Police Department (BHPD) said “An unlawful assembly has been declared in the area of Rexford Drive and Carmelita Ave. BHPD remains on scene.”
Saturday morning, the department tweeted that the unlawful assembly was over and arrests had been made:

Wednesday, President Trump tweeted that it was sad how government leaders in many states had allowed protesters to tear down statues and monuments:
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1275998585377652737
In an executive order issued Friday on protecting America’s memorials and statues, the president said many of the rioters, arsonists, and left-wing extremists who carried out acts against the monuments had identified themselves with ideologies such as Marxism.
He continued:
Anarchists and left-wing extremists have sought to advance a fringe ideology that paints the United States of America as fundamentally unjust and have sought to impose that ideology on Americans through violence and mob intimidation. They have led riots in the streets, burned police vehicles, killed and assaulted government officers as well as business owners defending their property, and even seized an area within one city where law and order gave way to anarchy. During the unrest, innocent citizens also have been harmed and killed.
“My Administration will not allow violent mobs incited by a radical fringe to become the arbiters of the aspects of our history that can be celebrated in public spaces,” the president commented.
“State and local public officials’ abdication of their law enforcement responsibilities in deference to this violent assault must end,” he concluded.

After receiving a request, Interpol meets by committee and discusses whether or not to share the information with its member states. Interpol has no requirement for making any of the notices public, though some do get published on its website.
It is unlikely Interpol would grant Iran’s request as its guideline for notices forbids it from “undertaking any intervention or activities of a political” nature.
The US killed Soleimani, who oversaw the Revolutionary Guard’s expeditionary Quds Force, and others in the January strike near Baghdad International Airport
UPDATE: Interpol have said that its own rules would not allow it to act on the Iranian request to arrest President Trump for the murder of Qassem Soleimani.

Black Lives Matter chairman Hawk Newsome has called for defunding the police across the country so that crime can be treated like a national health crisis .
“ I ’ m talking about is America treating crime as something that needs to be handled with policing instead of defunding the police and looking at crime from the perspective that it ’ s a health crisis .
The same way we looked at heroin addiction when it was only black people as tough on drugs , war on crime , and when it became white people , we looked at it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that needs to be treated .
That ’ s the way we need to look at crime , OK , ” Newsome said on this week ’ s broadcast of “ Fox News Sunday.
” “ You think about police .
Over 80 % of the calls are not violent felonies .
Therefore , we should really look into why police are being called .
Look at the causes of why people are committing crimes , they are desperate , they ’ re poor , they ’ re undereducated , and they are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ system of government .
So if you want to decrease crime , you don ’ t hire police to come in and arrest everybody and brutalize people .
If you want to cure crime , you must go to the source .
You must invest in people .
You must give people jobs .
You must make people employable .
If you look at places with the highest murder rates , have the highest rates of unemployment .
So let ’ s start talking about entrepreneurship programs in our community .
Let ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ meet the needs of people .
That ’ s something we can do with the hundred billion dollars that this country spends on police .
