Ronan is the leader of a religious cult in Gotham City. He holds a weekly “service” in the public park and, during his sermon, uses insulting expletives directed at persons in his audience who are not members of the cult. The audience has become boisterous and several times fights have almost broken out between members of the audience and members of the cult. After a particularly boisterous rally, the attorney for the city of Gotham obtained an ex parte injunction prohibiting Ronan from conducting any further rallies “which tend to disturb or annoy the average member of the community.” If challenged on appeal, a judge would find the injunction:
A. Valid, because the threats of imminent violence justify the injunction.
B. Invalid, because the injunction is overly broad and vague.
C. Invalid, because the injunction was obtained in a manner which violates procedural due process.
D. Invalid for the reasons set forth in B & C.
