Pretty much my read on it too.  No one has a right to be a county clerk or a sheriff or any other public servant.  If they don't want to do the job required of the position, they should be fired.

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

Yes I agree. Now how do we leverage this ruling to apply to sheriffs in may issue states that NEVER issue?

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.

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.

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.

This. 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.

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.

And if it is an elected official, should the local people handle it through the election process, recall, or/and impeachment.

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

Contempt of the Supreme Court? You do the same as with any other government employee or elected official in this hypothetical, and throw them in jail until they resign or comply. It's not a complicated situation.

It would be contempt of the trial court that issued the direct order (consistent with the appellate decision(s)).

But yes, that's how it works. 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.

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".
