The supreme court on Monday rejected a call to overturn its landmark decision that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide.

The justices, without comment, turned away an appeal from Kim Davis, the former Kentucky court clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples after the high court’s 2015 ruling in Obergefell v Hodges.

Davis had been trying to get the court to overturn a lower-court order for her to pay $360,000 in damages and attorney’s fees to a couple denied a marriage license.

You'd think the deletion message wouldn't pin the blame on you, then. Odd. But then, I've not been a programmer, admin, etc. in an exceedingly long time.

I don't feel blamed. Anyone can see the reason and deleted messages in the instance modlog.

Ahh, TY. Didn't know there was such a thing.
