The calm that returned to Morehead, Kentucky - home to the county clerk who had refused to issue marriage licenses to gay couples - could be short-lived when Kim Davis returns to work on Monday, along with crowds of demonstrators and the media.
Davis has been absent from work since she was released on Tuesday from a six-day stint in jail for her refusal to issue marriage licenses because it conflicted with her religious beliefs.
Supporters and critics alike are wondering what Davis will do on Monday, and whether her next move will send her back to jail, this time for a longer stay. A district judge has ordered her not to interfere with her five deputies who have agreed to issue marriage licenses to gay couples.
Before Davis became a rallying point for social conservatives and the debate over gay marriage in the United States, the rural town of 7,000 tucked in the Appalachian foothills was better known as the home of Morehead State University and its 11,000 students.
A walk through the town, where residents, including those in the gay community, as well as students mix freely, finds several banks, barber shops and churches, cafes and even a coffee shop and bookstore.

That’s so “gay”.
There is not a sign in this article that any other person in the town agrees with Kim Davis. In fact, all the propaganda has been directed at making anyone who agrees keep very, very quiet.
They are making people who previously thought live and let live change their minds quickly, after seeing their brutal agenda in full daylight.
Love is all that matters? That is a big part of their argument.
Some studies suggest cats can love at a certain level.
I’m marrying mine next Saturday.
We’re getting married in a CAThedral. I should get kicked off for that comment alone :)
What....what does selling your daughter to farm animals have anything to do with gay marriage? What am i missing?
My Ball State Cardinals played Morehead’s football team here a few years ago.
At half-time the crowd shared a cigarette.
The sign is based on a false premise. Americans, on the whole, have never traded their daughters hand in marriage for a bunch of livestock. That’s something other cultures still do, such as in Africa. So they just spent a lot to design and erect a sign with a phony message. Their Sacred Cow has no milk.
Says it all.
I want obama to go to jail for not enforcing the law. He is an elected official. He is not enforcing the law. At least there is a written law on immigration. There is NO LAW on queer marriages!! Why aren’t sanctuary city mayors heading to jail for contempt? Why is hillary not in jail for blatant violations of federal criminal statutes.
I like Kim Davis. I think public schools will be named after her.
HOW LONG have you known that cat?
Don’t rush into anything.
A supposed biblical times custom.
They are claiming it was a financial transaction... the fellow bought the wife and the wife had no sayso in the matter.
That isn’t historically accurate at least as far as the Abrahamic line went, but it’s a glittery straw man.
Or the marriage could end up being a CATastrophe.
I’m surprised Jim lets me stay around with jokes like these :)
That’s okay, you are DOGgedly loyal
LOL I could go in 10 different directions with my next one but I’ll spare all :)
And I’d be PRETTY sure... even in such societies... that the price was something that was needed in addition to the consent of the families involved. Not something that if paid obligated the bride to go to any comer.
This does represent, in a way, a total liberation... a horrible freedom to go to hell, even on earth, and so many people cheer it on.
Your octopussycat said so
A lot of customs have been abandoned and adopted since the Old Testament. It would be impossible, both culturally and legally for a large society to live that way literally.
The LGBT group can keep pretending that they don’t know this.
Perfect, and totally true, meaning if this was a billboard, it would be torn or burnt down before the end of the first day. Truth hurts, don’t it?
Well, Shakespeare liked puns.
Have you written any plays—or sonnets?
