They shouldn't exist, but since they do, refusal to issue should be a jailable offense. Much like the current marriage license shenanigans in KY

That depends. Did a court order you to do it after you refused? And did you then refuse to obey the order?
If so, then yes. You should be jailed for contempt for disobeying the order. Are you people still barking at this cloud? |

I also believe I must take my application to "my" county sheriff. Not the next county over or anywhere else in the US for that matter. Apples and oranges bub.

yes, but there's a problem with that when it comes to marriage licenses and CCW' permits. both are issued by "ELECTED" officials so re-assignment or termination doesn't work. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Not in my state. Besides, even if the issuing authority is elected, that person is free to resign his position if he does not want to do what the law compels. |

Not following the law as written as a public servant should be a jailable offense.
Not for just CCW's. |

If the Supreme Court were to find that elected officials must issue a CCW, issued direct orders to each sheriff or what have you to do just that, then any who don't should be jailed for contempt. |

Let's count the hypocrites. View Quote I think the better question is why do we need a permit to exercise an explicitly stated constitutional right? I see no right to "marriage" in the constitution, and I see an amendment that says rights not delegated to the federal government are reserved to the states. You fail at trolling. |

Or should the federal government swoop in and force the issue even when no federal law has been violated. |

Defy a court order. Go to jail for contempt. Doesn't matter what the order is - mow you lawn, pay your child support, issue a license. Makes no difference. Hard concept, I know. |

You are, of course, absolutely right on the technical details, but the outcome is (and should be) the exact same. I don't get why some people are having so much trouble with this. |

Is refusing to issue marriage permits a jailable offense?
Well then, there's your answer. Refusing to issue liquor licenses should also now be a jailable offense. |

You fail at what RIGHT means. The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people. That IS in the Constitution. Then everything can be argued to be a right. Ridiculous. That's a bullshit interpretation that creates yet another catch all for the federal government to constantly expand its power. If the federal government declares something a right, they then use incorporation to impose their will upon the states. This lys completely in the face of our constitutional foundation which called for a federal government with limited powers, strong protections for the states, and a very limited judiciary that has increased it's power through fiat. The powers not delegated to the federal government are reserved to the states. If marriage is a right, it's one that is regulated by the states, NOT the federal government. |

I'd be ok with that if the law states that the chief or sheriff is obligated to issue them and he/she simply refuses.
Of course, in California the law is structured and worded suck that the issuing chief LEO has sole discretion over whether or not he/she will issue. It is "may issue" and requires "good cause". Most every department openly declares that "defense of self, family, and home" is NOT good cause. Fortunately, my Sheriff's policy is "shall issue". Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |
