ASHLAND, Ky. — A Kentucky county clerk was found in contempt of court Thursday for her refusal to issue marriage licenses in wake of the Supreme Court decision to allow gays to wed.
U.S. District Court Judge David Bunning placed Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis in the custody of U.S. marshals until she complies.

Hypocrites for Jesus. Three marriages, children out of wedlock, and thinks she's qualified to judge others. Typical fundie.

well, she is refusing to do her job and breaking the law in the process
too bad so sad
and frick her for pretending she gives one shite about the sanctity of marriage w/all her divorces.
the sad thing is she will probably make bank from morons that want to support her fake arse cause.

Good, I hope she rots there

Judge got in 100% right. She took an oath and is willfully and intentionally violating it, on top of a court order. If doing her job makes her violate her religious beliefs, then by all means quit.

What a dumbass, glad she went to jail.

She should probably be fired for refusing to perform her job's duties. I don't know about throwing her in jail.

She took an oath, presumably swore to God, that she would uphold the law of the land. She broke the law, and lied to God. She's in big trouble.

Just impeach her. This is a waste of the taxpayers dime. Yeah, no way should she be allowed to keep her current job, but putting her in jail for this is just a waste of everyone's effort and time.

This a pure conflict of interests. I'm not aware of the processes involved, but she should go work for a travel agency or something.

not sure how big this CoC's office is, but typically the elected clerk never gets near a marriage license, or a lawsuit or a deed, or anything that resembles actual work. Some underling handles that stuff. Seems like she could allow her Methodist cousin, the deputy clerk, to handle the queer licenses, and still maintain her purity for the Lawd.

lol i hope she sticks firmly with her beliefs because that will mean she stays in jail for life
