Quote HistoryQuoted:
My guess is they will fine the county into submission rather than drag her away in cuffs. But unless she sleeps in the county jail and runs the clerk's office from her cell the feds will get her. The Feds will look at the deputies and sau "Okay we're leaving, we'll back tomorrow with an army and warrants for all of you." The deputies will not like the idea of their doors at home popping off the hinges with heavily armored machinegun toting feds looking to haul them up and would knuckle under, I suspect. Doubt anything dramatic will happen. County will get find and eventually she will knuckle under or be recalled or something. Feds aren't looking to get their shit pushed in again like at Bundy Ranch Interesting little drama in civil disobedience though Quote HistoryQuoted:

It could get ugly if the Sheriff decides he's on her side and sends a couple deputies down to arrest any of those federal boys trying to interfere. Remember, this was our great hope after the Sandy Hook shooting when it seemed like gun control was imminent; that the Sheriffs would tell the Feds to go fuck themselves...and they did! Doubt anything dramatic will happen. County will get find and eventually she will knuckle under or be recalled or something. Feds aren't looking to get their shit pushed in again like at Bundy Ranch Interesting little drama in civil disobedience though Would this qualify as civil disobedience? I thought that only applied to citizens refusing to follow the law, not the state refusing to follow the law. |

Just to clarify she is no longer issuing licenses AT ALL to ANYONE. The reason she is not being recalled is it is a rural county in KY. Nobody cares about the 3 gay couples in the county or their agenda.

So let's say I'm elected County Court Clerk and one of my functions is to renew and issue business licenses. And let's say I am a good god-fearing christian at the time of my election.
Fast forward 6 months and I convert to islam. I then have the personal belief that you cannot consume pork. Some guy wants to open a BBQ restaurant but I refuse to give him a business license. Please tell me how that would differ from this situation. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Whether or not you agree with her, you have to agree with what she's representing. If she can be forced to go against her religious beliefs, then what is freedom of religion? At that point, all it is is "Yes, you have freedom of religion, as long as we agree with you." Similarly - "yes, you have the right to keep and bear arms, but no one needs an assault weapon." she isn't being forced to do shit she can either perform her job function or find another job. The same choice I have when my boss asks me to do something I don't want to do. Her religious beliefs don't change the requirements for a job. |

Great she has beliefs but sometimes your beliefs can cost you and the ones who stand up then are truly worth the adoration. So basically you're saying that religious people can't do some jobs because of their religous beliefs. An idea which would obviously violate various EEO regulations put forth by the feds. Nope. I am saying if she is truly a Christian woman and this is against her beliefs then she should quit. Same as a Muslim being hired as a farm hand on a pig farm and then claiming he can't be forced to do that job due to his religious beliefs. More like a muslim being hired on at a dairy farm and then farmer deciding to raise pigs instead because he hates muslims. Her job didn't conflict with her religion when she was hired. Now, the federal government has decided to sanction homosexuality, which is a sin against God. |

She needs to be recalled. This is the proper action. Just like Obama refusing to enforce immigration laws. If a public servant refuses to perform their duties, or perform actions without authority, they should be recalled. Same with a Sherriff who refuses to issue CCW or sign NFA forms. Everything else is ineffective gnashing of teeth. Trying to compel her to take action she already refuses to do or fining her or imprisoning her for failing to perform her stipulated duties illustrates the real agenda. Forced embracing of a political agenda a person does not believe in. They want to make an example of anyone who doesn't embrace the "correct" worldview. Fines or imprisonment in this case make her a political prisoner a la the Soviet Union and other totalitarian regimes. |

Opening a business is not a religious ceremony. A marriage ceremony is. Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
So let's say I'm elected County Court Clerk and one of my functions is to renew and issue business licenses. And let's say I am a good god-fearing christian at the time of my election. Fast forward 6 months and I convert to islam. I then have the personal belief that you cannot consume pork. Some guy wants to open a BBQ restaurant but I refuse to give him a business license. Please tell me how that would differ from this situation. Opening a business is not a religious ceremony. A marriage ceremony is. I would have thought that a wedding being a religious ceremony would only be true if it were being held in a church of some denomination. Getting married at the courthouse isn't a religious ceremony, is it? |
