It was a joke. They are both great examples of civil disobedience though which is the point. Clearly you don't have a problem with civil disobedience when it's for a cause that you think is just. You just don't believe in what Kim Davis believes in.
She was elected to that office. Civil disobedience from an elected office is completely different than otherwise. I stated that as fact, and you are the one that has assumed what I meant. Again, it's dumb to compare the two.
Why is it different because she is in an elected office?
Because she's using her power and position to affect the rights of people. In this case the rights of gays to marry.
Isn't that what all types of elected officials do? Many judges are elected, they certainly do exactly that. The point is people only have a problem with it because they dislike her agenda. I dislike her agenda too. But if a judge ordered her to not issue any marriage licenses to interracial couples and she defied that judge I'd be on here waiving my towel for what she did.
Is there a reason why she can't be removed from office?
None at all. If she refuses to uphold the duties she should be removed.
That's my opinion with what should happen. I mean there is always a way to remove a person from office who steps outside the authority of their position.
I think it might be impossible to remove her from office. She's an elected official, I think she can only be removed by recall, and I think she's just as popular as ever with her voting base.
You are the attorney but it seems to be a clear cut case of breach of duty.

Rosa Parks was punching up, Kim Davis was punching down
Obama should've been removed years ago then.
sjw.... lol
I would be at the front of the line for that.
Why? Because he's black?
