Kentucky Clerk Once Again Denies Gay Marriage License, Despite Federal Order

[PaintMyHouse]

She has a free will, a voice, an independence, and a right to be herself and to cherish and practice her personal beliefs.

Outside of her job working for a secular government. She can knock herself out for all I care, after hours, not on taxpayer time. The taxpayers don't pay her to Praise Jesus and Hate the Faggots.

Oh, now she hates faggots. Did I see that quoted somewhere?

She's not in trouble for hating, she's in trouble for loving.

She loves no one, but herself, not even Jesus...

 

[Thunderbird]

I hate ***** for Christ, like Davis.

You really do hate women don't you. Why do women reject you, is it your personality or your smell?

And your quote of what I said was out of context, and therefore invalid.

Who are you trying to fool? I quoted you in context. Anyone can see you are a liar.

Such blatant discrimination is no longer tolerated in our society. This is NOT the 1950s, and your excuses for discriminating failed back then against black people and fail now too.

LGBT activists on some level realize their movement is ridiculous so they switch the subject and try to use the suffering of African Americans to push the LGBT agenda.

Well she really looks ugly but she is doing a right thing. We have to break the law cause no one wants to listen to our opinion. We, straight people, don't want to see homos marrying to each other.

Yanno................I joined the U.S. Government when I was 18 years old, in the form that I signed on with the U.S. Navy.

At the time that I signed, as well as the time that I spent in boot camp, as well as every time that I had to sit through yet another Navy Rights and Responsibilities lecture, I understood that because of what I'd volunteered for (as well as decided to join) that many of the rights that were enjoyed by my fellow Americans were not allowed for me.

If I wanted to protest or join a march, I had to check with the PAO (Public Affairs Officer) to see what I could wear, or if I could even participate.

Sorry...........but this woman needs to be fired. She can't follow the rules and she claims religious exemption.

Sorry...........but that would never be allowed in the military.

And if you claim that she's a civilian? Sorry yet again..............those who are employed by the government have to follow the rules that they set.

If she want's to discriminate against gays, she should find another job, maybe a post at a bakery that won't cater to gays.

I remember when the liberals all had "Dissent is the Highest form of Patriotism" bumper stickers on the back of their car. They would have stood up for a lone individual like this woman fighting for her rights against the government.

But after 7 long years of the socialist Democrat's creating a Obamaesque hive mentality.

It's rare to see that bumper sticker displayed today. ......

Dissent is an admirable quality and as of this coming Monday she will have every opportunity to stand up for her beliefs by going to jail. If she backs down she wouldn't have represented very much and if she stays in jail for a long time she can become a martyr for those that agree with her. We'll see in just a few days what she's really made of.

Arrest her? Why not just fire her? Wouldn't that be the most efficient and cost effective way to solve this issue. Fire her for insubordination and failure to do her job. Can they not fire a town clerk?

Under the Kentucky Constitution, a county clerk is an elected county official who hold their offices for four years. Kim Davis was elected and commenced her official duties in January 2015. She can't be fired.

Then close your eyes and get on with your own life. What difference does it make to you whether people you don't like get married?

With respect to all other "sinners" who get married, Kim Davis testified that she didn't deny them marriage licenses because "that was between them and God". Why can't she do the same for same-sex couples? she might think it's a sin ... but isn't that between the couple getting married and God? Why is she playing God now when she closes her eyes to all other "sinful" unions? I think she just selfishly wants to play the part of a "suffering" martyr and bask in the media attention. IMO, I don't think she's scoring any points with God.

Rosa Parks broke the law.

This woman should not be forced to do what she truly believes to be wrong. Nor should she be fired over it.

Oh yes, she should.

Well, I admit to not having read this entire thread, Fred.


But... oh no, she shouldn't.

The Rosa Parks comparison is a load of crap.

So yes, she should.

So, Rosa Parks didn't break the law?

Apples and oranges.

There is no comparison. Rosa Parks was the victim of discrimination. Kim Davis is the perpetrator of discrimination.

Rosa Parks was tired, Davis is a bitch. One went to jail so, are you up for number two?

So tolerant.... so suave... so, so Sussudio.

Tolerance stops at intolerance, especially when we are paying the bills. Now you know.

The woman is not being "intolerant", you intolerant buffoon.

She has a free will, a voice, an independence, and a right to be herself and to cherish and practice her personal beliefs.

The 6th Circuit Court of Appeals doesn't agree with you.

6 Th Circuit Order

As the County Clerk for Rowan County, Kentucky, Davis’s official duties include the issuance of marriage licenses. In response to the Supreme Court’s holding in Obergefell v. Hodges, 135 S. Ct. 2584, 2607 (2015), that a state is not permitted “to bar same-sex couples from marriage on the same terms as accorded to couples of the opposite sex,” Davis unilaterally decided that her office would no longer issue any marriage licenses. According to Davis, the issuance of licenses to same-sex marriage couples infringes on her rights under the United States and Kentucky Constitutions as well as the Kentucky Freedom Restoration Act, KY. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 446.350. The Rowan County Clerk’s office has since refused to issue marriage licenses to the plaintiffs, and this action ensued.

The request for a stay pending appeal relates solely to an injunction against Davis in her official capacity. The injunction operates not against Davis personally, but against the holder of her office of Rowan County Clerk. In light of the binding holding of Obergefell, it cannot be defensibly argued that the holder of the Rowan County Clerk’s office, apart from who personally occupies that office, may decline to act in conformity with the United States Constitution as interpreted by a dispositive holding of the United States Supreme Court. There is thus little or no likelihood that the Clerk in her official capacity will prevail on appeal. Cf. Garcetti v. Ceballos, 547 U.S. 410, 421 (2006); Evans-Marshall v. Bd. of Educ. of Tipp City Exempted Vill. School Dist., 624 F.3d 332, 338 (6th Cir. 2010) (where a public employee’s speech is made pursuant to his duties, “the relevant speaker [is] the government entity, not the individual”).

Aren't those the same people who raked in over a half million dollars in donations based on their portrayal of themselves as conservative martyrs? They made more money in the last few months than they ever would have made in their bakery business. "Poor me, I was victimized by gays just because God wants me to discriminate against them ... send me money!" Really? Who sends these pretend martyrs money? Idiots and dimwits ... that's who ...

She does. I disagree with the rude comments about the woman's looks. Why behave like a RWr if one doesn't have to?

Halznut is hardly a RWr. Hazlnut is a far left nut case who rages about anything conservative, Christian and capitalist

The operative words here are "like a RWr", which is what Hazlnut was doing.

Hazlnut is acting like a spiteful fairy. calling the clerk rude names. Hell hath no fury like a fairy scorned.

Acting just like a far right reactionary.

far right reactionaries aren't known for calling Christian women fat cows or lesbians. That tends to be a proclivity of flaming fairies

You should hear what they call women that they consider "liberal" though!

You completely MISS the point. The point is people like you tried these SAME arguments against black people and it failed and it fail now. You "religious freedom" argument is bullshit. You know, I know it, everyone knows it. And if you don't know it, then you don't understand FREEDOM OF RELIGION at all and should probably educate yourself.

You have very little religious right, if any, while conducting your public business. If you hold yourself out to the public as a cake baker, the law can tell you to bake for everyone. That is not celebrating a lifestyle, that is doing business.

Nice try. Above is your full post. Your meaning is not changed by context. We can all see you use ugly slurs against women. Do you hate women because they find you so repulsive?

Ah, the Gender Card.
