    Also Oklahoma: https://apnews.com/general-news-96b8a77a2f7b177a5c20431940860c06

    (from 2020 is the most recent I could find on their child marriage laws)

    Oklahoma lawmakers rejected a bill that would have stripped from parents and legal guardians of minors the legal power to consent to their marriages.

    Oklahoma law allows teenagers 16 and older to get married if a parent or legal guardian consents or through a court order. Anyone younger than 16 must obtain a court order to get married.

    Anyway, general point being, the US ruling class does not give a rat’s ass about protecting children. It just really likes using the law like a hammer and taking it on minority groups via selective enforcement and/or false accusations. We can expect that’s what will happen here. They launder it through issues like this precisely because it makes you sound like a bad person if you aren’t salivating to inflict maximum damage on the worst of predators. But in practice, we know they aren’t exactly going to be rushing to use it on white cops, legislators, rich people, ya know. And we know US cops suck at actually solving cases much less doing it accurately, unless it involves targeting minorities or enemies of the state (then they suddenly remember how to make things happen).

    I am not surprised that the child sex predation is that severe since the British diaspora have incessantdaily immoral sexual activities with Native American children in Indian Residential fake schools that secretly continues after 1997. Some white surprimacists still aggressively defends the Indian Residential fake school system and lied the Native American traditions were the cause for the mass raping despite the contradicting evidence that Native Americans do not follow the European concept of savagery.

    All the people saying they don’t support the death penalty now have to defend pedophiles.

      False equivalence. The issue is not “pedos get killed” vs “pedos get exonerated.” I’m personally fine with the death penalty to a point, but cmon this is ridiculous.

        I just don’t get why you’d be on board with death penalty at all.

        What does it solves exactly?

        It’s so abusable and there’s no take back… I feel it’s mostly an emotional solution to material issues… It also has been proven to not have a detering effect.

        It’s mostly the same as torture. Ineffective, abusable, permanent.

        I’m not saying this as an attack or something, I’m just genuinely puzzled at any kind of support to death penalty.

          This is a very legitimate concern. I support the death penalty in revolutionary situations where it is necessary (I.e. disciplining wreckers and traitors in an active conflict). I think in societies like the US, it is entirely morally reprehensible and is a form of white supremacist violence.
