Screen shot 2015-09-22 at 10.12.38 AMKim Davis is finally hitting the media circuit. (Honestly, we’re surprised it’s taken her this long.) This morning, the thrice-divorced Kentucky clerk spoke with Paula Faris on Good Morning America.

Davis said she absolutely, positively will not change her mind on the issue of same-sex marriage. But don’t get the wrong impression. She’s not antigay or anything.

According to Davis, she’s not a homophobe because…wait for it… she claimed, “I have friends who are gay and lesbian.”

“They know where I stand,” she said. “We don’t agree on the issue and we’re okay because we respect each other.” But wait! She said they are going to hell! How can that be respectful?

When asked if she would deny marriage licenses to those alleged gay friends, she replied, “I did.”

Davis also noted that she’s not afraid of martyrdom and is fully prepared go to jail for her beliefs.

“I can’t put my name on a license that doesn’t represent what God ordained marriage to be,” she said.

And as for her own marriages, Davis said she’s been “forgiven” by the Lord Almighty for all those transgressions.

“Washed clean,” she uttered.

Other highlights from the interview included Davis denying that she’s akin to Hitler, claiming that what other people say about her doesn’t define who she is as a person, and questioning why “unhappy” gay people even want to get married in the first place.

“I feel really sad that someone could be so unhappy with themselves as a person that they did not feel dignified as a human being until they got a piece of paper,” she said. “I mean, there’s just so much more to life than that.” So why, then, did she get married so many times?

Davis’ next appearance will be with Megyn Kelly at FOX News later this week, which we’re sure will be absolutely riveting. Then she’s very likely off to jail again. LGBTQ Nation reports that Davis is probably going to be summoned back into court for once again defying a federal judge’s orders by altering documents issued to same-sex couples after she promised she wouldn’t.

Pants on fire!
