That Kentucky Clerk Who Refused To Issue Same-Sex Marriage Licenses Is Going To Jail

September 3, 2015 / Posted by:

Because some of you are messes, Kim Davis, that clerk in Rowan County, KY who won’t give marriage licenses to same-sex couples, has been the #1 Hot Slut of the Day request this week. As if I would ever. First of all, making Kim Davis HSOTD goes against my beliefs, because how can I pay tribute to a woman who would not marry me and my future sugar daddy? Second of all, I cannot pay tribute to a woman with struggle brows. Third of all, I cannot pay tribute to a woman who has blatantly stolen Annie Wilkes’ style game. But then again, I could be speaking from a place of jealousy since Kim Davis has gotten more dick than me. If anybody deserves to be HSOTD, it’s the lady with a blond hair wave of perfection who’s making an, “I’m not with her,” face in this picture:

If you don’t know about this story, then welcome back from vacationing under that rock.  Ever since the US Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage in every state on June 26th, Kim Davis, who was elected into the position of Rowan County Clerk, has refused to give marriage licenses because of her religious beliefs and “God’s authority” has told her not to. A federal court ordered her to do her job and issue marriage licenses to all couples or go to jail. Kim Davis spat on that order and so today, she went to court where the judge ordered her to go to jail until she starts issuing marriage licenses. via Kentucky.com

A federal judge ordered Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis jailed Thursday after finding her in contempt of court for ignoring his order to issue marriage licenses.

U.S. District Judge David Bunning ordered Davis to remain in jail until she agrees to comply with his Aug. 12 order. She was led from the courtroom by U.S. marshals just after 1 p.m.

Bunning also told five deputy clerks who work for Davis that they have until 1:45 p.m. to decide whether they will comply with his order to issue marriage licenses or join Davis in jail.

UPDATE: Five deputy clerks have told the judge that they will follow his order and begin issuing marriage licenses again. One clerk, who is Kim Davis’ son, is standing by his mom and is refusing ti issue licenses.

Kim Davis has said before that she’d rather go to jail than defy God. She testified for about 20 minutes today and talked about becoming a Christian. She responded with a “thank you” after the judge said, “Bye, Kim.”

We all know how this is going to go. Kim Davis is either going to resign or she’ll be removed from her position and at that point one of her supporters will start a GoFundMe page for her. That GoFundMe page will make Kim Davis a millionaire. I’ve seen this movie before.
