[jaysabi]

Vows to defy federal court ruling striking down Alabama same-sex marriage ban and continue denying same-sex marriage licenses.

Southern Poverty Law Center files ethics complaint in response, seeking to remove him from office for judicial misconduct (again):  http://www.al.com/news/index.ssf/2015/01/southern_poverty_law_center.html

It's Wallace standing in the door of the schoolhouse all over again, demanding the federal government leave segregation intact. How proud Alabama citizens must be!

Anyone who supports this kind of intolerant bullshit really needs to take a look at themselves, government shouldn't be in the business of defining what marriage and love is.

If religious groups want to be intolerant jackasses by denying marriages to same-sex couples, I believe they have the freedom to do that. The government does not have a justification to do that, and basing your reasoning on the bible, like Alabama's finest homophobes are doing, is without merit and wholly irrelevant to the issue of equal treatment under the law.
