Kim Davis Denied Me a Marriage License. And I’m Not Gay

Our small community in Rowan County, Kentucky holds a holiday dinner every year, a tradition that goes back nearly a quarter century. Most of our elected officials participate and over 100 people donate their time.

When my fiancé Kevin and I went this year, Kim Davis served the green beans. She looked right at me and wished me a Merry Christmas.

This is the same woman who wouldn’t serve me a marriage license. She had no clue who I was. The woman who ruined my wedding and caused my life to become a circus doesn't even recognize me.

Marriage is a big deal to me and something I don’t take lightly. So when I decided to marry my long-term boyfriend, Kevin, it was a serious decision that I made with him several years into our relationship.

That so-and-so made life miserable for quite a few people this year.

and turned it into a circus.

Shame on her.

I hope this couple can be married on the day of their choice and live out their lives with joy.

And that's exactly what Kim Davis is. She used her official capacity to get attention. Considering that the Republican held Kentucky State Senate will not impeach her and the voters will not vote her out, she'll continue to hold her salary.
