Like the 2nd Amendment? Which should overrule unreasonable anti-gun laws states create?Something the Dog Said wrote: No, you are mixing up the issues. Federal laws are passed by Congress and signed by the President. Constitutional rights are guaranteed by the Constitution and are enforced against the government(including states and county clerks) to protect the rights of the individual. Kim Davis as an agent of the government was violating the constitutional rights of the same sex couples seeking a marriage license.
Constitutional rights are the antithesis of federal laws, protecting the individual from the government (including county clerks).

How can a person take your argument seriously whenever you distort cases? I do not know of any who refuse to sell products based on sexual orientation. The most publicized case involved a baker who was willing to sell products to LGBT but refused to produce products as a participant in their "marriage". This statement of your is a show stopper for me. Care to back up and state the cases accurately?Something the Dog Said wrote: This is an ever increasing issue particularly in terms of the right of some to claim freedom of religion to deny equal rights to the LGBT community. From a business refusing to sell products based on the sexual orientation of the purchaser to the Kentucky clerk who refused to honor the oath she swore to uphold the Constitution based on her alleged religious beliefs.

Arlen, you are of course incorrect on all counts. I have posted several relevant passages from the judicial decision regarding the baker that clearly states that the Masterpiece baker refused to sell products to a couple solely based on their sexual orientation. I expect your apology to be forthcoming.Arlen wrote:

Also, liberals care nothing for the Constitution. Why use it as an argument?
