The largest county in the U.S. possibly feels as though they are above the law. Time for them to learn that they’re not!
Ordinances, such as the ordinance adopted by the County of San Bernardino, have a dramatic chilling effect upon all registered citizens and their families. About 80 cities and 10 counties originally had such ordinances and every ordinance was different. In one city, you could walk on a pier. In another city you could not. Add the fact that there were no signs warning a registered citizen of the restrictions and the result in many cases was paralysis. Many registered citizens did not leave the town in which they live for fear that they would be locked up for a year and/or fined $1,000. The series of lawsuits filed starting on March 24, 2014, are pushing back this pendulum of punishment. Registered citizens no longer have to fear visiting their relatives and friends in most places such as Orange County. We will continue to file lawsuits until every city and county ordinance is consistent with state law.
The article states: “Bellucci also sued the city of Murrieta on Oct. 9.”, but I haven’t found a news article or a press release on this site about the Murrieta litigation.
