It just isn't being covered by the legacy media. From Sarah Anderson at PJ Media: The Nanny State Shut Down a Small New Hampshire Church. Now Pam Bondi Is Involved.
Howard Kaloogian used his barn to host weddings, and parties, and the town had no problem with that. But then he decided that he was going to host church services, and the town went ballistic.
But when Weare's zoning officer, Tony Sawyer, found out that Kaloogian was hosting church services, he personally "showed up at Kaloogian’s front door and told him he could no longer use any part of his home, including the barn, for religious assemblies. The barn was zoned residential—assemblies constitute a 'change in use,' and Kaloogian would be required to complete a site plan application and seek a conditional use permit (which Sawyer said would most likely be denied)."
Eventually after years of back and forth with the city, First Liberty Institute filed a lawsuit.
The city tried a delaying tactic, saying that the issues were not ready to be heard in court, but now the Trump administration is involved and saying that no delays should be given.
I know it's just one little church in New Hampshire, but it's a perfect example of what goes on across this country every day. It's rare and certainly not something I've felt much in my lifetime, but each day, it feels more and more like Donald Trump and his team are on the side of the American people. That's exactly what I voted for.
The authoritarians don't like the 1st amendment, or the 2nd amendment. The 4th has been gutted. Is there any amendment that they do like?
