Judge refuses to perform gay marriages because she doesn't want "to offend" God

A judge in Texas who has refused for the past four years to officiate marriages involving same-sex couples got a public warning from the state’s Commission on Judicial Conduct.

McLennan County Justice of the Peace Dianne Hensley (R) has refused to perform same-sex marriages ever since the Supreme Court legalized marriage equality in its Obergefell v. Hodges decision. But she is still officiating opposite-sex marriages.

Justices of the peace are not required to officiate marriages in Texas, but they can do it on the side and earn some extra money.

Hensley said that she is a Christian and therefore is entitled to a “religious exemption” to the law that requires judges to be impartial.

“So I’m entitled to accommodations just as much as anyone else,” she told the Waco Tribune in 2017.

Maybe she is under the impression that gays aren't really a minority.
