Wyoming is not Kentucky - not at all

In Kentucky, they praise and support a clerk refusing to issue state licenses to gay couples, in defiance of court orders.  And even some presidential candidates got a couple of seconds in the spotlight by holding hands with the (in)famous Kim Davis.

And, Kentucky even changes rules removing clerk's names from marriage licenses to accommodate Kim Davis' requests to honor the clerks' religious beliefs in doing their service to their constituents, both religious and not.

In Wyoming, on the other hand, they removed a judge from the bench who refused to marry gay couples because of her religious beliefs.

Wyoming is surely not Kentucky.

And, the territories allowing bigotry of public officials, at least in some areas, is rapidly shrinking.

I wonder when punishing people for free speech by public officials will be deemed bigotry as atrocious as denying marriage licenses to gay couples.

I hope it will happen on my lifetime.

One can always hope.
