So the story is this bar owner, defied the unconstitutional lock down edict. There is a wall of cops blocking the entrance to his business and people came out to protest. So his business is open, there is a wall of police blocking then entrance and they are being protested… by the same people who marched for them during the Blue Lives Matter counter protests. Literally, a block a way, the restaurants are open because they are outside this imaginary line that the mayor\ governor drew. The people the police are blocking are the people who supported them, not ANTIFA or BLM who want to defund them. And the edict, is obviously unconstitutional, but just hasn’t been challenged in a court of law. So you have a legal contradiction. The written law says one thing and the governor’s edict says another. Now the police are choosing to enforce the governor’s edict and not the written law.

Transplanting this here so as not to detail the topic of the other thread.

Why is this unconstitutional? I’m not asking why it’s bad policy, a bad decision, or anything else. I’m asking why the situation is unconstitutional.
