Meaning, Christians need not apply to government positions, right? Because if the next thing the government forces elected officials to do doesn’t comport with our faith, then off with their heads, right? Send in the Federal Marshals with their M4’s to take them to jail! You’re all for that, right?
Some people think FR is about pushing the Republican Establishment talking points of the day that they see on Fox News like “Trump needs to sign a pledge not to run third party, he disses Jeb for speaking Spanish, heck that’s the only language some people speak”
I think otherwise, the First Amendment and its freedoms of religion, speech and so on are worth discussing.
No. There are reasonable accommodations that can and should be made. Like I said, here, given that there were others in the office willing to do the job, let them do it.
But not sufficiently so that you agree they should be defied.
Where is your breaking point? What must they do before *YOU* think they should be defied?
She’s probably already gone from the courthouse, but there’s still reason to protest. The jail would be a good place.
What law can an Article III court create? If you answered no law you understand the separation of powers.
So the SCOTUS simply said, in their putrid holding, that laws limiting marriage to one man and one woman were unconstitutional.
Fine. Kentucky’s laws concerning marriage are now unconstitutional. But Kentucky has neither amended nor passed a new law.
Article III courts can not tell states what laws to pass or not pass. Kentucky can just not license marriage at all.
So what law has Davis broken?
So when does Trump back religious freedom?
Excellent, Jwalsh07!
Kentucky could decide to have no law. It could have an entirely new idea. It could change the process.
But right now there is no Kentucky law that hasn't been struck down. Does the judge get to write a new law?
And so far as Kim Davis is concerned....your question is perfect. What law has she broken?
Is there some new law passed by the Kentucky legislature requiring her to issue marriage licenses on penalty of....what?
Essentially, yes. This whole thing is escalating instead of deescalating. Oh boy...
David Bunning is one of the later sons of known liberal Jim Bunning and appointed by liberal George W Bush.
Wow our bizarro world. A W appointee putting a Dem in jail for refusing a Genesis 19 marriage order.
Thanks for the info.
Take notes on that, but don’t support RINO splitters like Huckabee. Cruz had something good to say.
I agree. I got beat up by a few elsewhere (different website) for noting that.
I pray this will galvanize the Right/Christians to stand with freedom.
Bad move to do this. An overreach which will damage gays
Good question.

The stinking blackrobed pigs can do as they wish. It Seems the federal dictators are making laws illegally and handing out severe punishments for minor offenses. Think about it. She refused to give a couple of disgusting perverts a piece of paper and gets thrown in a federal prison where half the judges in federal positions belong themselves. This is communism, socialism, or nazism. It is a dictatorship by federal edict.
I didn’t see that.
It can get pretty amusing sometimes. I am a conservative before I am a Republican.
Betcha Sergeant Donny Donowitz could straighten out ol’ Bunning...
thank you kim davis. i believe God will deliver you. i believe He will greatly bless you.
Bunning’s dad needs to take him to the woodshed.
