No more same-sex marriages? Next will be interracial marriages.
Child marriages will still be okay cause pedophiles are protected by Republicans.
This case should have been stamped out a very long time ago. Her first amendment rights do not give her the authority to reject a valid marriage application. Refusing to do your job is not protected by any amendment, because it isn’t speech. There is no valid legal argument in defense of her actions.
The fact that we’re here, still talking about it, and there’s a chance she could be heard by this corrupted supreme court, that tells you where we are as a free nation.
Exactly. If you have moral or religious beliefs that will prevent you from doing your job it’s on you to find another.
Especially when it’s a public sector position that’s financed through taxes
Yes, but have you considered that the Supreme Court doesn’t care and wants instead to allow religious activists (like themselves) to disregard prior precedent and other religious beliefs in favor of enshrining their own personal beliefs as civil law? It’s really rather unfair of you to not consider their personal beliefs, which says they should be able to impose theirs and ignores yours, y’know.
To the right wing authoritarian mindset, unless their unwarranted special privileges (of being xtian) are not only centered, but put up on a pedestal, they think they are being “oppressed” and that they don’t have “freedom”.
The Southern notion of “freedom” and “liberty” involves things like owning others and forcing your own views onto everyone else, with the blessing and the power of the government.
So we get the idiocy of these people acting like they are the keepers of “liberty”, and “freedom” and say things about being for the Constitution and a “small government” with a straight face, even though all of it is a brazen lie. Forcing other peoples’ kids to pray to their god, use something like the “trump bible” and be denied their right to marry who they please is the exact opposite of freedom.
Imagine if this lady put this much energy into feeding the needy.
Imagine if this lady put this much energy into being in a good healthy marriage instead getting married 3 times.
I thought it was 4 because one dude married her twice?
But if she did that she wouldn’t be an American Christian.
Kim Davis is a rotten cunt.
Urgh, not this asshole again. I thought she had crawled back under her hoarder fundie-Christian bridge a while ago.
Idk if you’ve been paying attention, but the fundies are 46% of the way through P2025.
Yeah I know. I just thought (hoped) that particular insufferable fundie had fucked off.
Funny how this is a religious violation but I’ve never seen a catholic cop suing the government over complicity in someone’s execution
What kind of miserable shit you have to be, just get help or kill yourself lady
Why the fuck is this woman still tormenting us all with her existence
Because madame l’guillotine takes time to build
Sir rope and lord spear take of easy access.
You need to have standing to take a case before the court. I promise you a room full of people convinced her to try this and is paying her way.
And then there is this stupid cunt who is still around, spewing her hate. WTF?!
I’d like some reporter to ask Bessent (on camera) about his own marriage and if it should be nullified by SCOTUS.
Can we all band together and sue the fuck out of Kim Davis?
Anyone who is into cryptobiology should take a solid look at her - a living breathing troll.
Besides funny rituals invloving deities, what is material in neoliberal capitalistic world is that there are various exclusive legal rights for partners over property, in labor forces, over child upbringing and in other fields. A select group of heterosexual partners who co-signed and keeps that deal with church/gvmnt gets a different treatment and some benefits no other party gets. It sounds petty and surreal to hold belief this custom should exist for that whole group but not +2% percents who are not heterosexual.
Single people, single parents, partners not married are way larger groups that are to look into discussing the marriage privelege. There can be no logical reason into pushing LGBTQ+ folks out but, emh, being more occupied with their personal live than their own. And with how many legalized gay marriage are in her state, there’d probably more court clerk involved into reviewing her whining than there are actual married gays, portraying how relevant and/or significant her problem with them.
For both law and market it isn’t reasonable to generate subcategories that small, as they seek the most optimized approach in classificating clients. While the state would instinctively want to calculate owned taxes as clear as possible, the market would feel ganked on for it doesn’t know what to do there, like, they need to invent new flavors of rings and decorations for incorrectly wed people? It is unreasonable to say the least, I bet they would still sell the same rings for hetero pairs and it would only lead into a spiral of moral-inspired lawsuits.
I don’t feel that person can be involved in any discussion about gay people. I’m not a gay person myself but I have a gay friend so I get it naturally. Sorry for rambling, I was farming for my second diamond hoe while dictating it.
