Sometimes I really wonder if people are talking about the same story. You seem to be missing the entire point of what happened.
She was preventing people from getting married. She was not just simply refusing to issue the marriage licenses herself, she was also preventing anybody else in her office from doing it. Before she was sent to jail she was offered just such a compromise where she would not be required to do anything herself that violated here beliefs, but she would have to allow her deputy clerks to issue the licenses. She refused that. It was not enough for her to be allowed to follow her own faith, she needed to impose it on others. She was unfairly and illegally stopping people from getting married.
After a week in jail this compromise seemed to look better to her. Although she never actually agreed to it, it is what she is doing.
Norman: Read my post's because I have followed this case since it began, I posted both sides of the issues and facts. No, the Judge had to let her out of jail because the other clerks were offering the same sex marriage licenses. I do not want to flood your screen with the same thing I posted already. Read them and I will be happy to respond to your response.
