Twitter Does Not Want You To Compare Kim Davis to Rosa Parks

Scroll To Top

After being jailed last week in contempt of court for continuing to refuse same-sex marriage licenses in Rowan County, Kentucky, anti-gay clerk Kim Davis, is being set free on the condition that she does not interfere in any way with the issuing of marriage licenses to all couples.

In usual fashion, Twitter is taking to the news like crazy, and people are really letting the internet know what they think of the now notorious Kentucky clerk. Especially since some people have the audacity to compare her to the legendary civil rights activist Rosa Parks, who fought for the equality of the African-American community.

\u201cComparing Kim Davis to Rosa Parks is absolutely ridiculous. Rosa Parks stood for equality, a concept that Kim Davis just doesn't understand.\u201d

Really tired of seeing Kim Davis everywhere.

\u201c. @GovMikeHuckabee you are dead wrong on the Kim Davis issue -- we issued marriage licenses because we believed the law at that time\u201d
