Jailed clerk

[Moveon]

Our local paper has an online edition and I found this there just a few minutes ago. I've not even read the article yet. I found the headlines and copied the URL and came here to post it and let everyone read it.

And George you are right that without her name on the document it may be considered invalid. The games they play!

I think the judge made his "intent"clear, that licenses be issued and that their be no interference with that being carried out.

So I look at the definition of license:
li·cense


noun

1.
a permit from an authority to own or use something, do a particular thing, or carry on a trade (especially in alcoholic beverages).
"a gun license"

verb

1.
grant a license to (someone or something) to permit the use of something or to allow an activity to take place.






"brokers must be licensed to sell health-related insurance"

So in effect, if the licenses issued are considered invalid, it seems to me she has "interfered" with authorizing an activity the judge and court showed their intent be carried out.

I think for it to play out, the legality of one licence granted would have to be determined, and then the prosecutor would need to connect the dots.

I really hope the licenses are valid, and she can stay detached, and this is the end of it. Not a supporter of same sex marriage. I am a strong supporter of the freedoms this country grants thru it's political and judicial processes.

I think that her lawyers are giving this woman some bad advise. I also think that if she is actually acting upon advice given to her by her lawyers (changing the license forms and taking off her name and county etc) that the Lawyer should be made to pay any fines that the Federal Judge give to her. And I do think that monetary fines are going to come soon along with more jail time.

I personally don't believe in same sex relationships let along same sex marriage. I would not want that for myself. But what other's do is their business as long as they don't do it in front of me or to me. I don't appreciate gays parading up and down the streets and being proud of what they are doing. To me that's DISGUSTING as hell.

But I do want to follow the laws. If I don't agree with the way that the laws are being made then all I can really do it try to vote for someone else to make the laws different. That's how a democracy works.

But this lady is breaking the law and she is defying a Federal Judge who has great power. She is playing with "Fire" here. She is NOT above the law and she has not business trying to make the law. When she changed the forms she broke her promise to the Judge and If I were him I'd have her thrown back in jail for a few months and then she if she's ready to change her ATTITUDE. She may not believe in same sex marriage but IF she wants to keep her Job she better start obeying the Judge's Orders.

NOTE: I've always though that the judges have too much power when it comes to finding people in contempt of their court. But I'll never openly challenge any judge that orders me to do some thing while in his court nor will I defy any of the Judge's orders. That's just going to get your ass thrown in jail and open to some big time trouble.

This woman is being advised by the wrong folks IMHO.

Now I can see why the Founding Fathers decided it was best to keep the Church and the State Separate from each other. They don't always mix well together.

I am honestly not even sure why the government is involved in licensing marriages anyway.
