Lawlight defending a blatant homophobe? I'm shocked.


I'm defending someone whose punishment far outweigh her crimes. If it's up to some of you, she'd probably be shot.

Actually she is being held in contempt of court. Same sex marriage has been deemed legal by the supreme court, and a court order was issued saying her office is legally required to issue marriage licences. When people are found to be in contempt of court they are usually jailed until they agree to act in accordance with the ruling of the court. Ergo, the punishment actually fits the crime, you have to come up with some form of mitigating circumstance to justify why she should not be in gaol.
