The law on this point is clear. Davis cites her religious conscience as the excuse for her intransigence, but she is wrong to do so. That’s not only my view, but the view of no less than Justice Antonin Scalia.
Davis has a right to observe and adhere to her religious beliefs, but she does not have a right to her job as county clerk. The latter obligates her to follow federal law, including the applicable judgments of federal courts, and it is now the law of the land that the Constitution bars state governments from refusing to recognize same-sex marriages on equal terms with opposite-sex marriages. If, as Davis claims, her religious convictions bar her from issuing such a marriage license, she should resign.

Crap and Bull Crap. It is NOT the law of the land. Kentucky law is still clear. And since WHEN does a SCOTUS decision equals a law duly passed by the lege?
Furthermore - her religious objections are valid, but not the only basis for objecting to this SCOTUS ruling.
Anytime any court - even the Supreme Court - issues an unlawful and unconstitutional opinion (like Obergefell v. Hodges) then ALL Americans must rise up and ignore such a dangerous and damaging rule.
scalia does not get it. This has nothing to do with law. This is insurgents trying to use our rules against us.
rule of law died at the supreme court with Obama.
