You're not free to enforce your religion on others as a public servant.

If they're going to open the door to any government employee being able to refuse to do their job as directed on religious grounds, this country is going to grind to a halt.

Just kidding, we all know that with the current court and administration, this will only allow people with the "right" religion to refuse.

Could we just get government out of the marriage game? It seems to be the source of all the problems. They simply shouldn't care.

Even if we don't this is such a simple concept: Marriage is a contract. The requirements for a contract is consenting adults. How can they make gender determine who can sign a contract? That would be unreasonable.

Of course they are. And of course that stupid bitch Kim Davis is involved.

Also: how could Joe Biden and Kamala Harris do this to us?

Can this bitch just fucking die already? I'm tired of seeing her face in the news every couple years

Who is the injured party here? She clearly refused to do her job.

What a horrible, terrible, evil piece of shit of a person. A lot of people serve other people they don't like every day, it's called having a fucking job, no need to make a federal fucking case out of it you stupid selfish childish pious asshole.

What a hateful piece of shit.

Shocked, I tell you! Shocked!

Also, what's going on with the Epstein Files? Ya know, while we're on the subject of "Dead Cat Theory"

You work for the government, you are acting as the government, paid for by taxes from your constituents.

You do not get to decide which laws to follow. Fuck off Kim.

Another 3 to 6 decision then. It's getting kind of repetitive.

Can we get someone who believes in Jakub elected as county clerk somewhere in the US South? Then they can deny marriage licenses to all the white people for being inhuman.

Yooooo.... This bitch is still doing the same, heinous shit? A decade later? Why don't these pieces of shit just get fucking lives or hobbies or something? They're like goddamned ghouls, hanging around and smelling of shit. Like. Fuck. GO AWAY.

This fucking cunt again?!

Fuck. Not this asshole again. She should have faded into obscurity and poverty by now.

But her divorces and multiple marriages are fine.

This is how it goes people, either everyone gets rights or no one gets rights.

They come for the Trans people first, how long until the come for you.

"Davis said she's been "called Hitler, I’ve been called [a] hypocrite, I’ve been called a homophobe."

"I’ve been called things and names that I didn’t even say when I was in the world. Those names don’t hurt me," Davis said. "What probably hurt me the worst is when someone tells me that my God does not love me or that my God is not happy with me, that I am a hypocrite of a Christian.""

Lmao, so you don't mind being called Hitler, but being called a fake Christian - now that's insulting! Tells you everything you need to know

Depressing as hell but honestly, I’m surprised it took this long.

Would this be a record turnaround for revoking a group's rights?

So could she have refused to serve a black person or an Asian person based on her personal religious views that she doesn't like black or Asian people?

Woooooo here we go 🙃

Fucking knew this was gonna happen. Are they gonna do Loving v. Virginia next?

Kid David didn't exercise her free speech, she discriminated.

Edit: Fuck I'm bad at typing. Kim Davis*

Can we just take a minute to appreciate how much forehead she has? She could star in the next Coneheads movie!

It would be such a dumb move to reverse a ruling this close to its decision and with such messy consequences for thousands of couples and families, of course they are going to do it.

This would then apply to all religions, correct?

She is so messed up. Religious marriage is separate from state licensing of relationships. Religion can discriminate away, but the state serves all its people.

She can't argue she was acting on behalf of the state, and literally says it was based on her personal beliefs how can she then argue she has no personal liability?

I think that firing her would have been the better answer though, if she won't do the job then fire her and hire someone without a conflict.

Here we go.

And this Ladys and Gentlr-people is, why LGB without the T is simply shooting in your own foot. First they go for trans people, but republicans will not stop there. They want to see all of the LGBTQ community dead or at least completely stripped of their rights and hiding at home. Just because you fought with the Republicans to make the life for trans people hell that doesn't mean, that you aren't next.

This should be a cut and dry case, where a person used the powers given them from their government position to deny civil rights as outlined by the Supreme Court and the Constitution. This was not them doing their government job, nor was it them just NOT doing their job. If it were the former, then there should be no penalty. If the latter, then they should be fired but shouldn't be held liable.

However, this was them exploiting their power to do a job in a discriminatory way. She didn't just not do her job. She specifically did her job for some people and denied others based on her personal feelings. She should be held personally liable for personally choosing to individually discriminate based on personal feelings.
