Today the Westboro Baptist Church picketed Kim Davis’ office, huddling outside the Rowan County Clerk’s office for about thirty minutes.
While you’d assume Westboro and Davis would be allies — they’re at least united in their virulently anti-gay stances — the Church decided to take aim at Davis’ prolific marital history and claim she’s “living in sin.”
According to a statement by the group: “Kim claims that she has lived in proud sin for many years, divorcing and remarrying, not one time or two times — in fact, you need a score card to keep track.”

Standing on the lawn, members of Westboro wielded signage with slogans like “Christians’ caused f*g marriage,” “Divorce + marriage = adultery,” “Divorce remarriage & same-sex ‘marriage’ are all sin,” and “God hates fa* enablers.”

A statement from the Church reads:
If Kim Davis received mercy from God and grace, as she claims, she would, with all due haste put her sin away. She would mourn for her sins, and in a show of great mercy, she would be busy apologising to the fags for enabling them, and she would, with all diligence, give those perverts a marriage license. Kim Davis has decided that her adultery is less sin, than the sin of the sodomites.
