Is the Mississippi AG still blocking same sex licences?

1. He might be blocking them, but he is being ignored.

There was a marriage in Hattiesburg and Jackson. The AG is waiting for the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals to lift their stay. I doubt that the Fifth Circuit is going to defy the Supreme Court since the federal government could withhold all federal funding and the judges would no longer have jobs.

Louisiana is still holding firm in their refusal to marry same sex couples and thus far none of the county clerks in the state have issued marriage licenses. I posted an article in the Louisiana Group with more details.

2. In MS, the lower court judge has yet to lift a stay.

It might be bullshit but it also might be just procedural.

3. Does one honestly believe it was merely procedural?

Especially when even Nebraska is marrying gay couples?

No! This is anti-gay rubbish. Just like in 1964 in MS. Then, it took the FBI and decades to settle the case.

MS could be like the rest of the country, but they remain an exemplar of ignorant outliers.
