US district judge David Bunning said that Davis “cannot use her own constitutional rights as a shield to violate the constitutional rights of others while performing her duties as an elected official”.

[…]

During this week’s trial, Davis argued that she was protected from litigation due to qualified immunity, a doctrine that protects government officials from lawsuits accusing them of violating someone’s constitutional rights.

“I shouldn’t have to do this thing because of my beliefs.”

“I shouldn’t be guilty because I was acting on behalf of the government.”

Pretty big valley between these two arguments. Roast this fucking turd.

“Good Christian” Adulterer Kim Davis conceived twins with her lover while married to another man.

“If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife—with the wife of his neighbor—both the adulterer and the adulteress are to be put to death” (Leviticus 20:10)

Yet another example of an evangelical conservative expecting to be protected by laws but not bound by them, while everyone else is to be bound by laws but not protected by them.

Davis went far out of her way to screw over some people. Bigotry has costs.

She’s going to start a GoFundMe and get like $500k and walk away wealthy. I hate how fucked up our society is.

KevonLooney ,

$400K isn’t “wealthy” by any calculation. It’s not nothing, but it’s not enough to live on. Unless your expenses are like $16K per year.

so, like, the median income in Germany?

Edit: I said that based on this. I think the Wikipedia link is about wages specifically (e.g. it counts only full-time employees), not about income in general?

KevonLooney ,

No? Germany is 3x that amount:

en.wikipedia.org/…/List_of_European_countries_by_…

Median and average are 2 completely different things my child

KevonLooney ,

If you click on the link Grandpa, you will see the words “European countries by monthly median wage”.

Did you read that section? Did you know that “average” is a colloquial word for a variety of maximum likelihood estimators? Are you trying to sound smart while putting in a minimum of effort?

@Nobsi@feddit.de avatar

So you found the 2400 in the list and you completely ignored that people here pay taxes and in the end its 1600 bucks a month?
So the German median? How is that triple?

KevonLooney ,

So you finally read the link, didn’t acknowledge that you were wrong, found the 2400 in the list, and didn’t notice that it was net (after tax) in Euros?

Since I have to do everything for you, “gross, in local currency” is 3,672 EUR (3,913 USD). That’s $47K per year, 3x $16K. You have to compare amounts before taxes, because you would pay taxes on the $16K too.

You dumbass.

If you had 400k invested you wouldn’t pay taxes because the taxes would already be paid by your broker

krnkkty ,

That’s only for full-time employees, I believe. I edited the comment to add the source I was looking at :)

KevonLooney ,

Not only is that data from 2013, but it makes no sense. Why would you include people who don’t make income (children, retirees, unemployed) in an income measurement?

It’s like looking up safety statistics on cars and finding out their diluted with people who don’t own cars, broken cars that don’t run, etc. Only working cars that drive should be included.

KillAllPoorPeople ,

Getting $400k in one go absolutely makes you wealthy. This isn’t $400k over a lifetime.

Kentucky is also a fairly low cost of living state which is something to factor in too.

My husband and I combined make waaaaaaay the hell less than 400k a year and we aren’t rich but I’d say we live fairly comfortably here.

Squizzy ,

Give me 400k right now and I’ll buy a house and live forever on fuck all because I’m safe and secure in my own home. That means so much, owning your home is wealth.

some_guy ,

It goes pretty far in a shithole like Kentucky. You’re right that it’s not wealthy, but it is wealth.

WorldWideLem ,

Is that legal? I know you’re not allowed to fundraise off your crimes, does that also apply to civil cases?

some_guy ,

The only way to ensure justice, if this happens (and she’d use GiveSendGo, which is a conservative christian fundraiser, so watch there, too), is to challenge it if it happens. If you’re passionate about preventing this creep from profiting on her bigotry, watch and challenge.

esadatari ,

aaaaahahahahahahaha that bitch can get fucked for all hundred k of it.

Rooty ,

I’ve said it before, if your religion is preventing you form doing your job, either change you religion or change your job.

Chickenstalker ,

Everyone has the right to follow their religion. If Big Kim didn’t want to disobey her God, she is allowed to: by resigning her position in protest and joining a monastery.

spaghettiwestern OP ,

I believe “Get thee to a nunnery.” might be appropriate.

Daft_ish ,

Eight year legal battle and a payout you’ll never see. Seems fair.

I was just thinking: this woman doesn’t have 100k. Lol.

No way this red has that money

DoctorTYVM ,

Uplifting news!

GAAAAH!!! MY EYES!!! I’d forgotten how ugly that woman is, inside and out!

Does she still wear her homemade birth control dresses?
