After being jailed and publicly ridiculed, Kentucky clerk Kim Davis finally got a law to protect her in the same-sex marriage license fight.
Republican Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin signed a bill Wednesday that brings “statutory finality” to the long battle over marriage licenses in the state, WLKY reports. Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis refused in 2015 to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples with her name on them, citing her religious belief in traditional marriage. She was sued and jailed for five days when a judge held her in contempt of court, but she was later released when other employees in the clerk’s office began issuing licenses.
The bill changes marriage licenses so they do not include the county clerk’s name and allow people to check whether they are a bride, groom or spouse.

It's not over, clearly when this gets to the Supreme Court, it'll be turned over. Is anyone in doubt this will happen?
If the state tries to deny marriage to anyone of the same sex it will be struck down. The Supreme Court has spoken.
So if two women apply and they both put 'bride' on the form, if no objections are raised and they are married I think that might fly. They have to abide by the intent of the Supreme Court decision, otherwise the door is wide open for a lawsuit that the state will surely lose and cost millions.
The form has changed. Kim Davis won. The issue is closed. You may not like the messenger but the message is the same.
Why would this go to the Supreme Court? Serious answers only..After being jailed and publicly ridiculed, Kentucky clerk Kim Davis finally got a law to protect her in the same-sex marriage license fight.

And it gets worse for Obergefell, the one "law" I'm sure Frigid Weirdo is certain that will provide the leverage to overturn Kentucky's. A USSC case in 1982 called "New York vs Ferber" Found that even when an adult has a clear and indisputable constitutionally protected right, if that right results in physical or mental harm to a child, that right CANNOT BE EXERCISED in such a capacity.

Yes, because Obergefell is void upon its wet signatures.
And that is because of a little doctrine called "the Infant Doctrine". That doctrine says that no infant can be deprived of a necessity in their life from any contract. Children share/shared implicitly in the marriage contract because children were the reason the marriage contract was invented over a thousand years ago: to provide them with both a mother and father. That provision was maintained without interruption until Obergefell. Children were not invited to that negotiation table.
Unlike other areas of law where a new challenge would have to usurp the mistake, when it comes to children and necessities, any contract that deprives them of a necessity (Obergefell mandates children be deprived of either a mother or father for life in 100% of "gay marriage" contracts), isn't merely voidable upon challenge. It is ALREADY VOID.
And it gets worse for Obergefell, the one "law" I'm sure Frigid Weirdo is certain that will provide the leverage to overturn Kentucky's. A USSC case in 1982 called "New York vs Ferber" Found that even when an adult has a clear and indisputable constitutionally protected right, if that right results in physical or mental harm to a child, that right CANNOT BE EXERCISED in such a capacity.
No one wants to ‘force’ Christians to do anything; Christians are at liberty to practice the bigotry and hate you and most others on the right exhibit.people like Frigid Weirdo will not rest until Christians are forced to worship LGBT dogma. This law makes it so they don't have to. It's a legal shoehorn for later victories for Christians to come..

SC decisions have been overturned. The states have the final say if they choose.
