Now, is there a time coming when we will be banned from holding the infamous Family Christmas Day, and Dinner WITH A PRAY at ones house without a permit?????????????? We as Christians have got to stand up and NOT tolerate(which should be redefined as: closing ones eyes to an issue) this any longer. This is definite proof that there truly is no separation of church and state!!!!!

Im not religious at all, yet I am completely appalled at the idea of a permit like that even existing. Freedom of religion means that you can feel free to practice your religion without fear, no permit required. I dont care if there were 80 people having a catholic mass in the backyard, if they are not hurting anybody they should be left alone and happy.

What irony that the persecutors become the persecuted. By all means County of SD, shut them down and start taxing the rest of those fairy tale houses. California needs the cash.

Be glad you do not live in San Diego County.

This is one of the most repressive, backwards, anti-business County bureaucracies in the USA. They have had the attitude exhibited in this outrageous incident – for decades. They have no respect for property rights or the Constitution (but that’s a growing problem in the USA – another story).

Please e-mail County Supervisor Chair Greg Cox greg.cox@sdcounty.ca.gov and tell him what you think of Pam Elias’ (Head of Code Enforcement) judgment. And you can e-mail her your regards directly at pam.elias@sdcounty.ca.gov

I hope for the sake of Religious Freedom, that this goes to court and the County gets assessed huge court fees and damages for their irresponsible actions. Too bad the tax payers will foot the bill on this and not the bureaucratic zealots.
