Once again you have Federal BRT’s (Black Robed Thugs) overriding the will of the people of Alabama.
I wish their state governor or the A/G or someone would send the Alabama National Guard out to the courthouses to arrest any damn fool that issues a marriage license to queers in violation of State Law.
And arrest them federal thugs as well.
“I wish their state governor or the A/G or someone would send the Alabama National Guard out to the courthouses to arrest any damn fool that issues a marriage license to queers in violation of State Law.”
The AG has no such authority. It would take the governor to do this. However, the governor (supposed to be a conservative republican), refuses to back Judge Moore because he doesn’t want Alabama to be perceived as “George Wallace in the 60s over blacks in the university.” Truly a sad state of affairs when preventing “homosexual marriage” is considered equivalent racial discrimination.
To echo your sentiments, I wished the governor would stop worrying about “perceptions” and do the right thing and back Judge Moore with executive powers. I agree with you that any probate judge that issues a homosexual a marriage license should be arrested, tried, and convicted under Alabama law. Then the federal robed tyrant should be taken into custody by the state police....then escorted to the border with a warning not to return or face prosecution in state courts. The state’s officers should obey state law in regards to marriage and totally ignore federal courts that do not have real jurisdiction. They haven’t for over 200 years....what has changed? IF the public strongly feels that homosexual marriage should be recognized in all 50 states, then they should put forward a constitutional amendment - get it passed in congress - then ratified by the states. They can not get this done of course! So, they get judicial tyrants to circumvent the COTUS.
Yet people like Cruz seeking to punt on the issue say leave it to the states.
