The clerks are administrative officials; I’m not at all sure we want them making policy or refusing to enforce laws …
The Supreme Court is better at that?

Ever heard of Tacitus’ observation, “Laws were most numerous when the state was most corrupt”?

Not disagreeing with regard to the Supreme Court having decided to make rather than interpret laws. I’m frankly not sure what the best way is to handle this.

I’m glad I’m not a county official responsible for registering marriages. Thousands of those clerks are going to have to make decisions, knowing that whatever they do could cost them a great deal more than they counted on when they signed up for what’s ordinarily a pretty routine job.
