Re: Dumbfuckistan Journal 5/26/15: Alabama Jails Minister for Performing Same-Sex Wedding

Forgetting about the federal ruling for a moment (I know, you can't), otherwise I would think this would be sound.

DePrizio seems to have been acting in her role as a State of Alabama official and marrying two people who were not allowed to be married under state law. It strikes me as no different (in the absence of the federal court ruling) than marrying two 14 year olds in definace of state law.

I think punishing DiPrizio is wrong because it's contempt of federal law, but I don't see any religious freedom issue here. Would anyone object to punishing an FLDS minister for enacting a polygamous marriage in his role as a Utah minister sanctioned by the state?
