Jesus. There should be immediate and brutal backlash to this. The state can't tell a business to close due to public health? - Mop Jul 7, 09:44 1
- is this the best use of their limited funds? frivolous lawsuits? -- nm - Epiphany -Orange Julius Denier Jul 7, 09:51
"AMC, Cinemark and Regal say that if churches are reopening, so must movie houses." that's funny -- nm - prayformojo Jul 7, 09:42 6
- Well, they probably shouldn’t be reopening churches either. -- (edited) - znufrii Jul 7, 09:51
- It’s such a dumb argument. You have a constitutional right to worship not to go to the movies. -- nm - spamlet Jul 7, 09:47 3
  - I'm not a lawyer, but if public health is the argument (which it is) how can they allow assembly of X people in one place but not another? - ty97 Jul 7, 09:51 2
    - Also not a lawyer but from my understanding the bar to close churches is much higher and basically if anything else indoors is open they should be too -- nm - spamlet Jul 7, 09:57
    - That was the argument they used here in NY to overturn the ban on church services. -- nm - Marquis de Krusty Jul 7, 09:57
- There's a real part of me that is hoping that they lose - JD Jul 7, 09:43
