The marriage registry should probably be subject to the wall of separation.

From the article:

Stupid, cheesy poster in a cheap-ass frame. If I were a citizen of Elbert County I'd be damn tempted to take it down and rip it to pieces as a public service.

But then they'd be accused of persecuting the Christians.

The "good" Christian clerk immediately lied and said there had been no complaints when there were many, as there usually are. I've complained about religious symbols in my face in public offices, once asking if I was in a chapel or tax assesor's office. Do you object? I was asked. I said Yes I do. They took the crosses off the desk and wall and took down the picture of praying Jesus,at least while I was there.

Unless people speak up they will keep doing it, and like the case in the op it's all about intimidation.

engaged in the pursuit of their civil rights, it's a government official foisting his religion on others.


And, fuck him.

There, I feel better now.

And yes, fuck him. Now I feel better, too.

But that probably won't happen. Sadly.

Thanks, BMUS.

But they would have a lawyer, GoFundMe account and an army of crusaders ready to martyr them overnight - ala Kim Davis.

morons.

And I am an anti-theist bigot for saying religion like this is a bane to all mankind. right?

Didn't you hear?

Calling out religious bigots makes you the bigot.

when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do.

I lived and worked in Elbert CO for 9 years during the 90's. I worked for the Sheriffs dept. and I was on the county payroll.
This saddens me to think they have gone over to the other side so to speak, as I don't remember it being overrun with god shit back then.

I had the most fun ever working at the county jail, most everyone was totally cool, except for a few wanta be deputies.

Couldn't resist writing when I saw Elbert Co. Colorado mentioned.
