California Law trumps Federal Law

This played out completely differently when Kim Davis broke federal law by denying marriage licenses to same sex couples. In that situation certain people wanted Kentucky to enact a law making same sex marriage illegal.  


I think the outrage would more likely be coming from the fact that this has to do with deportation.


Well as a state's rights person  I was not behind Kim Davis.
