According to ABC news, a court ruling brings SSM to Florida.
Because some county clerks doesn't want to perform gay marriages, they will now stop offering courthouse weddings for everyone.
"While awaiting Hinkle's clarification, a handful of Florida county clerks said they would stop offering courthouse wedding ceremonies, partly to avoid performing those ceremonies for same-sex couples.
"The clerks of court in Duval, Clay and Baker counties said they would have no choice but to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples when Florida's ban on same-sex marriage expired. However, they decided to end all courthouse weddings to avoid performing those ceremonies for same-sex couples, among other reasons."
Maybe they are buying into Tal's argument.
