“hose who point out that she’s no different than the SF City Council for creating a “Sanctuary City” are mostly right, except she has the 1st Amendment behind her, and SF doesn’t.”

Yes, and no different from Obama refusing to enforce laws he doesn’t like either.

Too bad we can’t jail him to force him to comply with the law :D

It seems that those who are rank and file “ok with gay mirage”

don’t seem to understand that the whole point is the criminalization of Christianity.

They think they can possibly have one without the other.

Yes, the law in practice and the law in principle are worlds apart. Some may question whether or not the courts are worthy of respect, I mean other than the kind of respect one gives to thugs out of a sense of self-preservation.

Too little, too late.

What Rand should have done was call for a select committee on Judicial Misconduct, called the Judge to testify, find him in Contempt for having a wrinkled suit and JAILED HIM in the CONGRESSIONAL JAIL for 1 month, while they IMPEACH and Remove him from the Bench. But that would require someone with true conviction.

She wasn’t jailed for breaking a law. She was jailed for contempt of court by refusing the judge’s order to issue marriage licenses to same sex couples.

WRONG!
SHe was JAILED for refusing to recognize the Judge’s Authority to Legislate and create New Laws. THERE IS NO LAW allowing her to issue ANY LICENSES, it was Invalidated by the USSC. Even though article 3,section 2 says an “Appellate” decision by the supreme Court DOES NOT APPLY TO A STATE, only those case the supreme Court held in it’s ‘Original Jurisdiction” apply to STATE’S.

the word SHALL, means it is MANDATORY and THEY MUST HEAR THE CASE. They Did NOT, the decision only applies to the individuals involved.

Article 3, section 2 US Constitution:

n all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions, and under such Regulations as the Congress shall make.

The Governor and the Attorney General should have already imprisoned the Judge for Felony Kidnapping.

“I think it’s absurd to put someone in jail for exercising their religious liberties,”

Should Muslims be allowed to exercise their religious liberties?

I’ve come to believe that the “right to exercise you religion” is too broad. That is why we’re having so much trouble fighting the onslaught of Islam.

The bill of rights sets down certain fundamental values for the nation, but as written it protects groups that would destroy those values. Makes no sense.
