There is no real victim thus no real crime.
Try telling that to gay people who wanted to get married in her county and have had their civil liberties refused up until now - despite a supreme court ruling in their favour - on the grounds of "belief".
Or, let me put it another way - pick any thing you take for granted that the law allows you to do.
Now stop doing it because someone else thinks that people with your first name shouldn't on the grounds of belief. Just your name mind - your neighbour is fine, anyone without the same first name as you is ok. But you..Jesus said no.
How would that feel? Would you not be a victim?

Okay so you goto get a wedding license and it is refused because the person says because of who you love she will not do their job and give you that licence despite it being law to do so doesn't matter eh?.
Inconvenienced? what about their rights? the law of the land? you are wrong it is not an inconvenience it is a person denying someone else their personal rights to get married.

Maleficence in Office and it is grounds to remove a person from an elected position. What you need are people who will take a stand and call it what it is.
But we do not have that in this case. Instead you have other elected Officials, Government employees, etc etc who are dancing around the problem cause they are scared to piss off the group of people who actually support this foolish women.

But is jail the answer?
Is locking up this person with killers, rapist, violent criminals, thieves, etc etc the answer to solve the problem?

Well, it is their choice to be locked up in jail, they can leave anytime that they want to. All they have to do to leave is tell the Judge that they will do their job.
n. improper and/or illegal acts by a public official which violate his/her duty to follow the law and act on behalf of the public good. Often such conduct is under the guise or "color" of official authority

Well let's just forget about Nixon and our government. What Kim did pales in comparison to them.
Malfeasance in office? Roflmbo not even close.

Well that will be a while. We will have to wait till January or if the governor decides something soon. As of right now she's in charge. I wonder how long she will last in jail?
if the governor decides something soon
Now why do you think the Governor is NOT doing something and allowing a Judge to handle it??
I will give you a hint.... the Governor has to be elected. What are his chances of reelection if he were to piss off the religious people of his State??
