Clerk Defies Supreme Court, Refuses Gay Marriage Licenses

[Esquilax]

Then what was the point? I thought the whole deal of putting her in jail was to get her to come to her senses. she can let herself out when she decides to start doing her job again. She needs to be made a proper example of.

Edit: Sorry for quoting something nine pages ago. I haven't checked on this thread in a while.

The thing is, Kim Davis is utterly irrelevant to the case of Kim Davis. As a person she's just an unpleasant face to put on the real issue, which is a government employee refusing to provide a service that the citizens of her county are legally entitled to. So long as that happens, both I and the law couldn't care less about the ignorant bitch; the first court case she lost had the judge give her the option of simply allowing her deputies to issue the marriage licenses, just as the conditions for her release from jail state now. She refused to allow them to do so, forcing her religious beliefs on everyone around her in the process, just as she apparently intends to do once she gets back to work, only now she can be arrested and placed back in jail for multiple counts of contempt of court when she does. I suppose this might be all according to plan for her, since it's apparent that her actual aims are to get everyone to care about her backwards religious beliefs, not to protect the sanctity of her religious convictions.

As an unrelated point, one that I've pointed out multiple times in my writings on Davis (check my sig ) does anyone else find it ironic that the person all these conservatives are holding up as an example of government persecution based on religion is a government agent who was persecuting and oppressing others based on her religious beliefs?
