I honestly can not understand how anyone, regardless of political ideology, could defend this attack liberty. I wonder what kind of a person would drop a dime on them?
Couple: County Trying To Stop Home Bible Studies - San Diego News Story - KGTV San Diego: "SAN DIEGO -- A local pastor and his wife claim they were interrogated by a San Diego County official, who then threatened them with escalating fines if they continued to hold Bible studies in their home, 10News reported. Attorney Dean Broyles of The Western Center For Law & Policy was shocked with what happened to the pastor and his wife. Broyles said, 'The county asked, 'Do you have a regular meeting in your home?' She said, 'Yes.' 'Do you say amen?' 'Yes.' 'Do you pray?' 'Yes.' 'Do you say praise the Lord?' 'Yes.'' The county employee notified the couple that the small Bible study, with an average of 15 people attending, was in violation of County regulations, according to Broyles. Broyles said a few days later the couple received a written warning that listed "unlawful use of land" and told them to 'stop religious assembly or apply for a major use permit' -- a process that could cost tens of thousands of dollars."

They shoulda said they were having cocktail parties. I guess that would have been OK.
It's the regular part that's the problem. You compromise others right to peaceful enjoyment of your home when the block is crammed with cars and part of the worship involves bongos - every fucking weekend. The occasional cocktail party is not comparable.
