A governor orders a dusk-to-dawn curfew after riots, limiting movement citywide; what constitutional balancing is most relevant?
A
Curfews are always unconstitutional because freedom of movement is absolute; any restriction, even temporary, violates substantive due process.
B
Courts apply strict scrutiny to broad curfews affecting fundamental liberty; government must show a compelling interest and narrow tailoring to restore order.
C
Rational basis applies because emergencies suspend constitutional rights; the governor's good-faith belief alone is enough to uphold the curfew.
D
The Lemon test applies since curfews affect nighttime worship; government must avoid entanglement with religion to enforce public safety.
E
The actual malice standard applies because curfews respond to rumors; officials must prove speakers knowingly lied before restricting movement.
