Are you going to stand up for the rights of a Muslim county clerk who decides to issue marriage licenses to polygamous groups?

Of course they aren’t. If this clerk had claimed any other religion, the same crowd now supporting her would be frothing at the mouth.

I am as surprised as anyone that Fiorina of all people managed to get this one right.

“Are you going to stand up for the rights of a Muslim county clerk...?”

And what about you, Alberta’s Child?

Are you going to stand up for some lawyers to make up fake rights out of whole cloth while exceeding all authority to do so? Are you going to stand up for mindless “law” over morality, judgment and common law?

Look, one doesn’t have to like *how* this lady is handling her personal situation. But one ought to respect the fact she is trying to DO something that is lawful in Kentucky about an unlawful (and immoral!) dictate from the higher court.

“The stay request offers several options such as removing Davis’s name from the marriage license, thus removing the personal nature of the authorization,” Staver pointed out. “Another accommodation would be to allow licenses to be issued by the chief executive of Rowan County or developing a statewide, online marriage license process,” Staver suggested. “There is absolutely no reason that this case has gone so far without reasonable people respecting and accommodating Kim Davis’s First Amendment rights,” Staver concluded.
