Justice of The Peace Refuses Interracial Marriage

Did this man do anything wrong?As he said, he recused himself from conducting the marriage ceremony for an interracial couple, not ``prevent' them from getting marrying.'' Is this similar to a doctor refusing to sell contraception or perform abortions? I had a knee-jerk response to this when I heard about it, but if this is only one guy and interracial couples can easily find other places to get married, is his personal stand that big of a deal?
