Monday is going to be a fun day, what with Ms. Davis’s return to work, the likelihood that she will order her clerks not to issue marriage licenses and try to fire anyone who does and now the Oath Keepers setting up a security perimeter to ward off the evil feds. Mark my words, somebody is going to get shot before there is an end to this fiasco. If there is blood I don’t suppose that Senator Cruz will think it is on Governor Huckabee’s hands. ---

He was saying that the Dred Scott decision was still law even though nobody follows it, so the gay marriage decision can have the same status – officially the law, but nobody follows it. Without having to do anything messy like actually getting a constitutional amendment to override the decision. ---

So we don’t have to follow laws we don’t like? Now that Huckabee has learned that black people are actually free and equal, would he support someone who didn’t want to follow that? Heck, the Bible is ok with slavery so ending slavery is christian persecution! If Kim Davis was issuing slavery licenses, would he be there to defend her? I guaran-goddamn-tee the Oath Keepers would. ---

They are full of shit when claiming she has a right to a jury trial if she is found in contempt again, and they are a great vesuvian eruption of shit when claiming that they have legal authority to block the enforcement of a court order. She was convicted of civil contempt to coerce her into stop disobeying the judge’s order. You don’t get a jury trial with civil contempt, so if she is convicted of civil contempt again to try to compel her to stop disobeying the order, she still won’t have a right to a jury trial. If she is convicted of criminal contempt as punishment for repeatedly breaking the judge’s order, she will not have a right to a jury trial unless she is sentenced to six or more months, in which case the jackbooted thugs still will not have any authority to stop her being incarcerated, for it will be up to the the judicial process to meet the requirement for a jury hearing, not for the thugs to block the arrest. [CODISPOTI ET AL. v. PENNSYLVANIA, Supreme Court of United States No. 73-5615, 418 U.S. 506 (1974).](https://scholar.google.ca/scholar_case?case=5458121294621896838&hl=en&as_sdt=6&as_vis=1&oi=scholarr&sa=X&ved=0CBsQgAMoADAAahUKEwjxo-jzyO3HAhWLf5IKHQ9lCzM) If the thugs try to block her arrest (should she again be arrested), I sincerely hope that they are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, and that their sentences include their having to wear diapers and only diapers during their incarceration and throughout their parole. ---

Now this is the kind of shit that really cracks me up. Liberal apologists will completely dismiss and ignore and coddle the Muslim populace who have repeatedly declared absolute war on gays and yet totally declare war on some retarded Christian lady who doesn’t agree with gay marriage. “So you stone people in your country for being gay? Open the borders!!!” “So you disagree with two gays getting married? Off with your head!!!” ---
