Silence turns to screaming in an Eastern Kentucky town (yes that Kentucky town)



Kim Tabor, a clerk at the judicial center in Morehead, KY., wears a T-shirt to work claiming she is not Kim Davis, the Rowan County clerk, Wednesday Sept. 9, 2015. Tabor, who works across the street from Davis, had the T-shirt made after people confusing her office with Davis' would enter the building and start screaming at her. According to Tabor, the bright orange T-shirt breaks the tension and lightens the mood of those than come into the judicial center. (AP Photo/ Dylan T. Lovan)

MOREHEAD, Ky. (AP) -- Kim Tabor sometimes wears a bright orange T-shirt bearing a slogan she's found herself repeating for weeks: "Hello my name is not Kim Davis."

Tabor works for the Rowan County Circuit Court Clerk, the office that handles court filings. Across the street is the Rowan County Clerk, where Kim Davis licenses marriages and has ignited the passions of religious conservatives around the world with her objections to same-sex marriage.

Tabor said people all over the country, confusing the two offices, have called the circuit court and asked for Kim. When she answers they start screaming.

The T-shirt keeps things light.
