Rowan County is located in Kentucky. Kim Davis is the Rowan County clerk who has repeatedly refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples and has therefore been jailed by order of a federal judge.

Here’s a video of a Kentucky attorney, Michael Peroutka, explaining a constitutional defense for Ms. Davis at a rally. He argues that she’s broken no law, because there is no law requiring her to issue marriage licenses to homosexuals. Yes, there may be court opinions alleging that Ms Davis must issue such licenses, but court opinions are not “law”–they are only opinions.
