In your amicus brief to the court, you pointed out that poor little Kentucky hasn't had time to adjust to the change in marriage laws. Specifically, although you have laws penalizing clerks who issue marriage licenses to couples who aren't legally entitled to them, you have no legal penalties regarding clerks who refuse licenses to people who are legally entitled to wed. You suggest that the courts back off and let the state legislature figure this one out.
I know you're a busy man and don't have time to read your own state's history, so I did it for you. It turns out that -- shockingly -- Kentucky was not what might be called an early adopter when it came to interracial marriage. Specifically, you didn't allow it until the Supreme Court of the United States forced you to do so.
That was almost 50 years ago.
Are you honestly saying your legislature needs more than five decades to figure out how to make a law regarding issuing marriage licenses even when it makes a clerk feel all icky?
Sorry, honey. This one's on you. You've had time to adjust to "new" ideas when it comes to marriage. If you haven't used your time more wisely, don't blame the courts.
P.S. In case I haven't made it clear, there's no WAY I'm going to believe that every clerk in Kentucky felt just FINE about interracial marriage the day after Loving vs. The State of Virginia was decided in favor of Loving marriage. I would suggest you stop bragging about how narrow-minded and behind the times your state is, and start doing the hard work of dragging your ignorant arse into the 21st century.
P.P.S. Even the 20th century would be an improvement at this point.
