Fair enough. However, you dismissing her religious beliefs still makes you a bigot.

No, her twisting the Bible to suit her bigotry is what makes her a bigot, and she absolutely should pay for her mistakes.

Dismissing her religious beliefs IN CONTEXT OF HER JOB is fair, not bigoted. You just said it was "fair enough." You can't say "Fair enough, but that's unfair." Makes you look a bit ridiculous.

How was she persecuted? No one stopped her from having an adulterous affair which produced twins nor from her divorcing four times, but she wanted to stick her self-righteous nose in the personal lives of others. Seems to me she was the one doing the persecuting.

She is elected official, she cannot be simply removed by bureaucratic decision.

This is not a private business like a baker. This is a public official and as such her personal beliefs are irrelevant in carrying out the duties she has been assigned.

That poster is talking about a final solution, which is very Hitler-esque.

The office she held dictates she issues the license, if that is unacceptable to her she should of resigned or never ran for the office.



A baker being required to bake cake for gay couple is whole other story because that is privately owned business. In that case the gay couple can opt to go to another bakery.

Her job entails following the law. She can quit if she has such a problem with it. She is a bigot.

And an ugly, ignorant, disgusting, butt ugly hick.

Yeah and she's also been married 4 times, add hypocrite to the list too.

I have to do stuff at my job all the time that I don't agree with.

She had every right to do that. What she didn't have a right to do is decide the laws do not apply to her. If she was able to step aside and still allow the system to work, I would defend her.
