“ “A lot of 16-year-olds get pregnant,” added representative Valarie Hodges, also a Republican “Do you feel it’s better for them to not get married at all and for the child to be born illegitimately?””
“ According to the Advocate, over 4500 people under the age of 18 were legally married between 2000 and 2010 in Louisiana, including one child as young as 12.”
Children under 16 have to win a judges approval to get married.
16-17 just required parental consent. (No mention of if a shot gun was mandated)
The existing law mandated:
“ Louisiana has no legal minimum age for marriage, but under current law, if one or both partners are aged 16 or 17, then parents need to appear at the clerk’s office at the time of the marriage application.
Those under the age of 16 currently require a judge’s approval to get married.”
What are the stats on child marriage? We've upped the age of consent (and marriage) in the last few decades and it's had absolutely disastrous effects on our society. Most kids get horny around puberty (say 13) and if not married off, they'll just screw around. After however many partners, pairbonding ends, and you can no longer have long term relationships that are necessary for families to form.
I'm not a fan of making it legal to raw dog kids, but marriage might be a different issue. Even in the image posted, you can see the couple are just a bunch of actors. So someone is already trying to plant some idea to make it seem like a bad thing. My guess is when child marriages are involved, the curve of older men marrying young girls goes down as the man's age increases, perhaps significantly.
I always laugh at these kinds of posts. As if it supposed to convince someone to become liberal or something. Newsflash: many pedos probably don't give a fuck about politics. Do fuck wads exist on both sides of the political spectrum? YES
