“Today, for the first time in history, an American citizen
has been incarcerated for having the belief of conscience that marriage is
between one man and one woman,” Roger Gannam, Lawyer for Kim Davis
"I think it's absurd to put someone in jail for
exercising their religious liberty," Sen. Rand Paul
“Today, judicial lawlessness crossed into judicial tyranny.
Today, for the first time ever, the government arrested a Christian woman for
living according to her faith. This is wrong. This is not America.” – Sen. Ted
Cruz
Okay, these people are DIPSHITS. This is not an issue of
someone being “jailed for their religious beliefs.” This is not “religious
persecution“ and it sure as SHIT is not the “first time in history,” yada yada
yada.
In fact, it is not a first ANYTHING. Stop saying it, please.
STOP PLAYING THE “CHRISTIAN CARD.” It’s bullshit. You know you are full of
shit. WE know you are full of shit, and YOU know that WE know you are full of
shit. So, QUIT TALKING TO US LIKE WE ARE STUPID. You have your own constituency.
Talk to them like THEY are stupid ... because they ARE. They voted for you,
didn’t they?
What this IS, is just another case of a person that got
busted for BREAKING THE LAW. Plain and simple. It’s no different from somebody
that got ticketed for speeding, or arrested for shoplifting, or put behind bars
for aggravated assault.
This woman was given a COURT ORDER, and she ignored it. So,
she is in CONTEMPT of court. She’s been breaking the law for some months now.
It just finally caught up with her. In a sense, she’s been A FUGITIVE FROM
JUSTICE. She was breaking the law from the first moment that she turned those
two young men away, back in June, and she’s done it multiple times since. The
moment the Supreme Court dropped the gavel, same-sex marriage became valid
nationwide, and as an elected GOVERNMENT official for the county, Kim Davis
took an oath to honor and abide by the law. No one is telling her not to be a
Christian. No one is keeping her out of Church. She is more than welcome to
continue believing in her own outdated, and extinct superstitious garbage. As
an official of the COURT, however, she needs to keep those beliefs out of the
work place, and continue to perform the duties that she is PAID TO DO. If she
wasn’t comfortable doing that, then she was more than welcome to resign. She
chose to do neither. It’s a textbook case of “I’ve got my cake, and I’M GONNA
EAT IT TOO.”
IT DOESN’T FUCKING WORK THAT WAY.
Imagine if I was driving one day and I suddenly thought to
myself, “You know, I don’t like the color red. In fact, I find it extremely
OFFENSIVE. Not only that. It’s against my religion to even LOOK at the color
red, or acknowledge it in any way shape or form. So, I’m not going to wait at
stop signs any more … because they are RED. Nor will I stop at red traffic
lights. I’ll just keep driving. Because I have a right to stand by my religious
convictions, and no court anywhere is allowed to take that from me. The word of “God of the COLOR GREEN” supersedes
traffic laws and as far as I’m concerned all lights are green ALL THE TIME.”
How long do you think that would last? First of all, I’d
obviously be putting hundreds of lives at risk, not to mention my own. Next,
how long do you think I could get away with that before the CHP put out spike
strips on the freeway, and then dragged my goofy ass out of the car and started
pounding my brains into pulp with their clubs?
And assuming I even lived long enough to make it to trial, how long do you think my “religious persecution” argument would stand up? Not long. They’d laugh me out of the damn courthouse and throw me in the BOOBY HATCH. I’d be declared LEGALLY INSANE, and rightfully so.

Furthermore, it’s not like Kim Davis would have any trouble
finding another job. She’s got enough work experience and seniority to where if
she suddenly resigned from the clerk’s office then she could probably quickly
find something else that pays just as much if not MORE. Not to mention she’s
got a lot of supporters. Some misguided ally is bound to throw her a bone. Hell,
I’m from Kentucky too. Some religious nut job distant relative of mine might
even be the one to give her employment.
But then again, she wouldn’t be able to use her GOVERNMENT
JOB and GOVERNMENT OFFICE as a forum to spew out her religious objections to
the decision of the United States Supreme Court. That is UNACCEPTABLE, and it
REEKS of the worst and most vile form of corruption.
Now, Kim Davis, I’m talking directly to YOU. I seem to
recall reading somewhere about somebody saying “Render unto Caesar the things
that are Caeser’s.” In other words, it’s not YOUR law. It’s the law of the
country in which you live. You don’t have to like it. In fact, you can HATE IT
as much as you want. You can complain about it to people you are doing it for,
WHILE YOU ARE DOING IT. The bottom line is, you STILL DO IT. Why? Because
that’s your FUCKING JOB. That’s why you were ELECTED, and it’s why taxpayers
are PAYING YOU.
There is a time and a place to complain and piss and moan
about it. That is in Church. Or, you can go home and gripe about it to your
soon to be FOURTH ex-husband (or fifth, or sixth, or whatever the fuck, I’ve
lost track). Reason I assume he’s going to be your fourth ex is because you are
currently sitting in jail, and he’s a guy. Guys have needs. He’s not gonna be
able to stay dry for long. You never know. He may step out with the UPS Man.
Then won’t you look the fool?
What will you do then? Pray about it, I suppose. More power
to you. Good luck with that.
