Dude, you think you know more about the law than she does because you were a wedding photographer in New York before gay marriage was legal.

I don't even know what you think qualifies someone to be a judge but I'm glad it isn't that.

We’re both speaking firmly from conjecture, and neither of us has any substantial evidence.

Yes, that was my point.

How does that in any way make you a legal expert? I did a voice-over for a video for the United Nation's International Atomic Energy Agency about nuclear power plant regulations. Do you know what I know about nuclear power plants or regulations? Not a fucking thing. And I would never claim to have some insight into the law just because my job involved being in proximity to legal language.

You weren't even a wedding photographer there when it was legal for gay people to be married. That happened in 2015.

This is not a good look for you.

I wonder if she even new that.

SHE'S A FUCKING JUDGE.

Carter liked the trains. Reagan was the one behind the defunding. That's why 1979 was the peak and not 1980.

Ehh, I think Occam would have the better of that here.

Would you say the same about this?

People commit crimes and then pin the blame on someone else literally every day. It's like the easiest way to try to get away with a crime.

Yeah, well maybe she should have thought about that when she married the heterosexual couple first and then refused to do it for the queer couple, showing it was basic discrimination.

This isn't rocket science.

I'll edit and put it in the body too. Good call.

Or the words on the casings are intended to direct you to the wrong solution. Because, again in the real world, people who commit premeditated crimes throw police off the scent intentionally.

For fuck's sake... performing the ceremony is literally her job.

The tiniest bit of searching would have told you this before you started acting like a legal authority.

Is there anything to not avoid in South Dakota? I'm sure there's still a conestoga wagon or stage coach or something to Sioux Falls if you must go there.

Exactly. We just don't have enough information yet and it is just silly to assume this is some sort of just world where people behind atrocities that are subsequently murdered are murdered because of those atrocities.
