This feels like an epic "no shit" moment. There are no clauses in the Constitution saying "these rights only count when the government feels like it". Having said that, I can only hope this sets precedent. Best case scenario is it gets to the supreme court, and all these bullshit lock-down measures get axed.

I think it's important that [we] whatever resistance exists, continues to maintain their position on the absolute human right to individual civil liberties.

Never never give that away. Not for the promise of anything. The great minds of the Enlightenment who constructed America's founding documents were not wrong.
