This is ridiculous. A justice of the peace doesn’t have that kind of discretion, and the reasoning is just silly.

I can understand preachers and ministers refusing to marry a couple but not JPs. They don’t exist to render moral judgements on the bride and groom.

Your genes are way too different for a marriage around here. We want maximum genetic similarity.

“I told him if I do, I’ll resign,” Bardwell said. “I have rights too. I’m not obligated to do that just because I’m a justice of the peace.” He needs to step down. His time was up about 40 years ago.

Unless the law states he cannot recuse himself, he has the right to do so. Interracial marriages aren’t as problematic as they have been in the past, but that doesn’t mean his observations aren’t still true for his region. He gave them another JP’s name and didn’t try to prevent their marriage altogether.

I hope the couple went elsewhere and enjoy a long happy marriage. And I hope the JP finds another line of work where his personal views are irrelevant.

Yes because marriages between members of the same race never fail. /s

I thought the point of going to JP was because they DIDN’T care who they married.

A justice of the peace said he refused to issue a marriage license to an interracial couple
Inexcusable. Impeach now.

"A justice of the peace said he refused to issue a marriage license to an interracial couple last week because of concern for the children who might be born of that relationship." Well, there is one outstanding bad example...
