Any thoughts?
Could it be heterophobia and bigotry towards heteros? im sure she has problems and needs help.

Haven't read the story - but it's not surprising. Someone was going to do it, and I'm glad she had the guts.
Hardly heterophobia, just grand standing. Kim Davis is an idiot, the world is ridiculous.
It's a worthless conversation in the face of real issues facing humanity. We waste too much time arguing about "rights"
No one has any rights, you're simply alive. deal with your own ****. The clock is ticking.

I think it's more a case of tit-for-tat. Or to put it another way, "what's good for the goose is good for the gander". I admit that takes guts though. Can we spell irony? :trazz:

I'm curious why a link about a Texas Judge has a link to a BET story about Nigeria. But then I'm not really expecting much from a site that has a pop-up about Freedom of Speech.
Massive Edit.
The article this thread is based upon is dated: September 6th, 2015, links to a BET article from February 27th, 2012.
"Latest Headlines"
The original story is from 2012.

I don't see anything wrong with what she said. I honsetly don't understand why it was ever an argument.
“... I usually will offer them something along the lines of, ‘I’m sorry. I don’t perform marriage ceremonies because we are in a state that does not have marriage equality, and until it does, I am not going to partially apply the law to one group of people that doesn’t apply to another group of people,"
I'm not sure what the OP is implying here, and that site looks to be just a little bit off...

Who cares? I think marriage is a crock of crap and nobody should do it period. But I do think it's more of a revenge plot to counter what Kim Davis was doing and that's it.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.

The story is from 2012.
It's three years old.
SO yes, the more things change the more things stay the same...because this site is trying to pass off something that happened three years ago as something that's happening today.
Unless this woman had a time machine, or the ability to see into the future, there is no possible way this is revenge on Kim Davis.

Oops. I missed that. My bad. But who knows? Maybe she found a TARDIS and actually DID go back in time. Anything's possible.
