    So stupid. The idea that a public servant could refuse service to someone due to their personal views should immediately trigger their firing.

    By the same token, can a black police officer refuse to arrest someone of their own race? Can a tax auditor refuse to investigate a pedo if they have those same beliefs? Can a permit office refuse to let a Catholic Church add on a wing?

      I was thinking a judge in another state could just stop officiating weddings from straight couples if they so desired. I bet that would make headlines and prompt some reactionary legislation.
