There's a big push to make gay marriage illegal again in the USA...

But several gay dating apps are threatening to release the names of all Republican officials with an account there if the Supreme Court goes ahead with that.

This could be better than the Epstein files 🍿👀

Is this a serious push? First I'm hearing about it.
@sstronaut yep, Kim Davis started a petition and the supreme court now has to take that into consideration.
@NerdyPotato Do they? I mean, they're pretty good at ignoring stuff when they want to. And according to this article, it sounds like most legal people think the Speme Court won't take the case, though I'm a bit confused with their wording, if they meant the 2015 case, or this petition, so maybe I'm misunderstanding.

Either way, if I remember her 2015 case, it was extremely stupid, as the court simply asked her to do one of two things...

1) Do her legal job, which was simply to hand out the marriage license (or something out), not to make a determination on it, but simply hand them out.

2) If she was morally against it, then let one of numerous subordinates do it, I'm her absence.

She refused on both counts...

It really wasn't a gay rights case... but more of a, you swore to do this job legally, and the job is do an action, not make a ruling, but simply follow others rulings and do the actions. But instead, you aren't doing the action, and you're making a ruling, that you aren't allowed to make.

Yes, she was trying to make it about gays, and that was her reasoning, but the underlying issue at hand, was she wasn't doing her job... nor letting anyone else do their job.


She claimed 1st amendment rights, but her job, was a states job, therefore since it's a government duties, there are no amendment rights for refusing.

And again, the judge was extremely lenient, they didn't even rule that she had to do it, but simply that she had to let someone on the staff, anyone, to do it.
