Just as Rosa Parks refused to give up her bus seat to a white man in defiance of an unjust law Kim Davis is waging her own battle against an unjust ruling in support of the mentally troubled(read homosexual) to wed. It is against Davis's religious views to support or participate in a same sex wedding, and it should be her right to refuse to have her name attached to one. Just as Muhammad Ali refused to sign up for the selective service based on religious grounds and was later vindicated for doing so, Kim Davis should be allowed to refuse to issue same sex marriage licenses under the same logic. Unfortunately she is getting no backup from the same judicial system that came up with the convoluted logic which led to this problem in the first place. I cannot say Kim Davis will win her battle, but I do respect her for her willingness to stand up for what she believes in.
She's George Wallace standing up against a just action. Rosa Parks was fighting unjust laws. Unjust laws which prevented people from having their rights. Exactly what gay marriage bans did.
Many wedding related businesses have withdrawn from the wedding industry entirely to avoid the cost of litigating their refusal to participate in a same sex wedding. I honestly can't blame them, and it's sad this is how it has to be in this country today.
Prove it. I hear this hogwash all the time from right wing blogs, but never any proof but some lady who did two weddings a year in Appalachia where gays aren't going to get married anyways.
She is standing up against an unjust government action just like Rosa Parks, and she is going to jail for it. The parallels are astounding for both cases. Nobody should be forced to go against their religious beliefs.
Nobody is forcing her to go against her religious beliefs. Get a new job if you hate it so much.
but that the gay person suffers from a mental deficiency that drives them to be gay for unexplained reasons.
What an absolutely disgusting response. I'd recommend you read a book other than the bible, but I'm not sure you'd be able to comprehend it.
For the record before anybody calls me a Christian hating liberal. I have never voted for a Democrat. I'm very fiscally conservative, but I have a heart. I went to Sunday school, I went to private Christian school, I go to mass. What I learned was God is all loving. The responses here aren't responses from Jesus loving Christians. It's from closed minded bigots. Practice what you preach.
