Description
Summary:Left to right (starting second from the left): Matthew Roland, Rachel Bear, James Hartley, and Andrew London. The demonstrators, all from Pensacola, Florida, are holding signs that read, ""Adam's children were insestious [sic] / Solomon had seven hundred wives / Lot tried to give his daughters to rapists / And you're worried about what the Bible says about Gay People?""; ""These Are Southern Colors Too""; ""Human Rights Trump States Rights""; and ""Free Kisses."" Judge Don Davis had closed the county's marriage license office on February 9, 2015, the day a federal court ruling striking down Alabama's same-sex marriage ban was to go into effect. After four couples were denied licenses, they appealed to U.S. District Judge Callie V. S. Granade, who ordered Judge Davis to comply immediately on February 12.
