Kentucky Clerk In Contempt For Denying Gay Marriage Licenses

Recommended Posts

I can appreciate having your own views on gay marriage, but why the hell are you in this job if the law now goes against your beliefs? Resign and find another job! I hope they toss her azz in jail! :mad:

She'll lose since she's in clear violation of a SCOTUS decision. It's just a matter of how this plays out.

I believe the person that has to decide her fate is running for Governor. :popcorn:

She's on her fourth marriage.

Really? :lol:

 

She is to the sanctity of marriage what Michael Brown is to unwarranted police brutality.

I think I read somewhere that she is a Democrat. I'm not sure though because CNN forgot to mention it. :(

Probably because it's in no way relevant to the story. :thumbsup:

 

 

I am really tired of these people who think having religious conviction justifies not doing their job, and that being forced to do their job is an assault on their religious liberty.

Ditto.. Resign, organize a strike group, protest - something. Just get your ass out of the job you were hired to do. Tired of these focks trying to make policy from their position. We have clowns on the hill getting paid to do that already.

You didn't presume she was a Republitard when you first heard the story? :dunno:

 

Also I think CNN would have worked it in if she were a Rep. But that's just speculation on my part.

I did presume she was a Republican but her party affiliation has nothing to do with the story so there would be no point in noting it. For all we know she ran for county clerk as a Democrat because the incumbent was a Republican and it was the only way to get party backing.

 

Maybe CNN would work her party in if she was GOP? Hopefully not because it isn't relevant either way.

 

CNN also didn't note her multiple marriages.

Agree. She obviously is wishy washy, repub on certain traditional issues like gay marriage, democratic on others like no prob with her God with her being divorced 3 times. She should reassign herself to be an independent. The point is not repub vs democrat here. She is unable to perform her job she was sworn in to do now and is violating the rights of those citizens to marry their partner.

What if she found Christianity just recently, AFTER her last marriage? I have read people calling her a hypocrite but they don't know the whole story. Seems to me like character assassination rather than speaking to the issue.

 

With that said, Ghey Marraige is federal law now. If she has that big of a problem with it she needed to step down from her position in protest. But she can't be in that position and not follow the law.

 

Same logic with these "Sanctuary Cities" like San Francisco. Oh, local law enforcement wants to not follow federal laws and talk to ICE and let go convicted felon illegal aliens? Ummm no. It's the law, you are a gov't employee. Follow it. No more "Sanctuary Cities".

I feel the same way about pharmacists who won't issue birth control, women in burkas who want to be receptionists, bakers who won't make cream-filled chocolate dong cake, etc.

 

If you are unable to fulfill the requirements of your job you have no business holding the job in the first place. "Religious convictions" is no more valid an excuse than just not focking feeling like it.

See I draw the line there. Government employee versus a private small business. Public versus Private sector. I'm not saying for all instances or examples, but there is a difference.

I don't find it irrelevant. It makes it hard to take her convictions seriously.

 

What if she recently found God and her religion....after her last Marriage?

 

Following the death of my godly mother-in-law over four years ago, I went to church to fulfill her dying wish. There I heard a message of grace and forgiveness and surrendered my life to Jesus Christ,” Davis said. “I am not perfect. No one is. But I am forgiven and I love my Lord and must be obedient to Him and to the Word of God.”

 

Because that's what happened. So lets stop with the character assassination (something liberals constantly rail against). And focus on the legal aspect of the issue. mmmmkay?

A privately owned business is not allowed to refuse to serve customers on the basis of their gender, race, religion etc under the Civil Rights Act. Many states if not most include sexual orientation. Ergo a private business does not have a legal right to refuse to serve gay people. :dunno:

In her case, she was elected to issue marriage certificates. Then the law changed under her feet and she refused to uphold the new law. Elected officials have to follow the law. So she has to go.

 

I'm not convinced that should apply to private sector work. I wouldn't want to make the dong cake either. There's a gay friendly baker down the road.

Agreed.

 

It makes her look like a huge hypocrite. Like she has the moral grounding to lecture anybody else.

The private baker can refuse to make dong cake. The baker just can't refuse services to one group of people that he delivers to another on the basis of minority status. That's the distinction.

I said in all cases. It's not that simple.

 

Example: A restaurant. They cannot exclude or refuse to serve a ghey person who walks in their establishment to eat. But a case can be made (and will eventually evoking the 1st Amendment) that they are not compelled to cater (attend and work) a Ghey Wedding. That's the distinction. And the courts will one day weigh in.

I am not a fake lawyer, but my understanding is that in many states the restaurant actually would be compelled to cater the gay wedding under the Civil Rights Act. The courts are weighing in on the gray areas all the time but it's not looking good for people who want to refuse services to gays on religious grounds.

 

Good article here:

Even that article states that in most states the example I said is a "grey area". :dunno:

 

Look, I think it's an interesting topic. How the 1st Amendment rubs up against "protected" classes. Which takes precedent and all the tangents therein. I think we'll see a Supreme Court ruling in the next 5 years about something like this now that Ghey Marraige is Federal Law.

 

A private, Christian High School. Are they required by law to not discriminate (hire) Ghey teachers? I don't know all the answers, its a question. But at some point the 1st Amendment takes precedent if it can be proven.

 

 

It's not quite as black/white as I think you think it is. :dunno:

I don't think it's black and white. I just said that in most states gays are not covered under the Civil Rights Act. Others make exceptions for religious reasons in some cases.

 

I'm only taking issue with the idea that a private business has the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason. I've seen that idea here before and it's false.

My daughter goes to a Catholic High School and I think she has muncher for a teacher this year. I meet all her teachers for open house when the school year started. She has three electives this year so she decided to take baking. The baking teacher is very young and pretty and puts off the ghey vibe. I asked my daughter last night how all her classes were going. How's she doing in math. Hows her hot lesbian clam bumper teacher doing. Lil Bunny: Yeah, I really think she's ghey now. Me: Why? Lil Bunny: She told one of the students to go into the closet and grab her a box to put a cake in. When the student came out, the student said "Now that's a big box". And the teacher said "That's what she said!? Me::lol:
