This woman and her lawyer are a fucking embarrassment.

Imagine thinking this is a good use of the supreme court’s time.

For posterity, her lawyer said

If there ever was a case of exceptional importance, the first individual in the Republic's history who was jailed for following her religious convictions regarding the historic definition of marriage, this should be it.

You dumb asshole, your personal beliefs don’t have anything to do with the law.
