Two clerks, one message.
Casey County Clerk, Casey Davis, vows to join his now famous colleague from Rowan County, Kim Davis.
'I'm trying to help a woman that does not deserve to go to jail,” Casey Davis said. “This woman has done nothing wrong."
Using vacation time, he will cross the state on a 400-mile bike trip from Pikeville to Paducah to protest against what he considers a public prosecution of a Christian. This as Kim Davis is confronted by the very people she turned away.
"Is this what you want to remember?” yelled David Moore, one of the gay men trying to get a marriage license from Kim Davis Tuesday. “That you stood up for this? That your children have to look at you and realize that you’re a bigot, and you discriminated against people?”
Kim Davis asked them to leave. She did not issue any marriage licenses even after a Supreme Court Ruling.
"You're telling us that we don't deserve the same rights as you do, that you have, that you've enjoyed your entire life?” Moore asked.
“Would you do this to an interracial couple?" he asked her.
"A man and a woman?” Kim replied. “No."
Despite the pressure, Casey Davis says he won't issue any same sex marriage licenses either.
"I want to be as free as they want to be," Casey said of LGBT couples.
The couple at the center of the video inside the Rowan County Clerk’s office says the clerks are already free, just outside of their jobs.
"I think that narrative is pretty far from the truth,” David Ermold, Moore’s partner said. “This is really, truly just about someone doing their job."
Casey plans on reaching Paducah Friday evening. What he doesn't plan on doing is stepping down and thinks Kim Davis shouldn't have to either.
"This is the job I was elected to,” Casey said. “If the people of my county my constituents don't want me to have this job when I run again, they'll tell me that."
Casey Davis proposes having the person officiating the wedding issue the marriage license. He says he's got some support from other state leaders.
Bttt
One is standing up now MORE might stand up, can't have that....
We need to have courts for queers. The 98% of the rest of us can use the regular courts to get married. / .s
More power to em!
They should all call in sick.
ShaQueera Law?
Have them use the sharia courts
They will say it started with a trickle.............. That soon became a tsunami.....
Sure. Get sane, get a woman, and then you can get married.
Try to be a pervert with your butt buddy and you don't.
This is stupid, the State just needs to fix this. Eliminate marriage license. All conservative states should get out of the marriage license business. Take this issue off the table. Call all marriages civil unions and let them register on line if the State can’t get out of the marriage license biz. The gays are not interested in getting married they want to force this Fran on this clerk. I bet they never get married even if she agreed to issue the license.
That’s the spirit!
If more county clerks would stand up like this, life would become very uncomfortable for the judiciary quickly.
Let’s pray that by tomorrow, a lot of folks in KY start to stand up for Kim Davis in meaningful ways, including some State court judges who actually know KY law.
We are a nation of laws, not emotions.
[We are a nation of laws, not emotions.]
Unfortunately, the vast majority of voters in this coutry vote emotionally.
It’s her son, and it’s in the same office. If several from different offices would stand up, then there would be an impact. Now it just the nail sticking out that’s getting pounded down.
Why don’t they deport Kentucky to Mexico?
As it was in the Days of Lot,
as it was in the Days of Noah,
so shall it also be,
in the days of the Coming of the Son of Man.
Matthew 24 Revised Standard Version (RSV)

The Necessity for Watchfulness
36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son,[c] but the Father only. 37 As were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of man. 38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, 39 and they did not know until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of man. 40 Then two men will be in the field; one is taken and one is left. 41 Two women will be grinding at the mill; one is taken and one is left. 42 Watch therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. 43 But know this, that if the householder had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 Therefore you also must be ready; for the Son of man is coming at an hour you do not expect.
Luke 17 King James Version (KJV)
26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.
31 In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.
32 Remember Lot’s wife.
33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.
34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.
35 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.
Everybody is named David here?

Goliath is trying to pull a fast one. Sane people aren’t going to confuse the bullies with victim(s).
Exactly. They're heterophobes, they hate straight and want to punish us, especially Christians. Instead of going to another baker who would share in their joyful ceremony, they seek out a Christian who will refuse. Then they sue them and ruin their business.
Oh yeah and #LoveWins /sarc
Casey Davis is NOT related to Kim Davis.
