So uh, hi ya'll. Apparently 2016/2017 didn't gift enough misery to the world (we still miss you Bowie).
2018 saw the deaths of beloved musicians, the rise in threats of nuclear annihilation, ans jesus-christ-quit-touching-people-without-consent, and said , "Here, hold mah beer."
It appears that there's a strong enough pederasty contingent in Kentucky that a bill to prevent child marriage was halted. Yes indeedy, there are enough potential/actual pederasts with the willing ear of their legislators that the idea that perhaps children shouldn't be enjoined to adults for legalized rape is A BAD IDEA THAT SHOULD BE SHOT DOWN. What. The.Actual.Fuck. Kentucky? And the lege is all "Yup, our bad - we take it back."
"Adams filed the bill after media reports detailing how Kentucky has the third-highest rate of child marriage in the country — with more than 10,000 children married from 2000 to 2015, according to the Tahirih Justice Center — and the accounts of women like Donna Pollard, who was encouraged by her mother to marry an abusive man who was nearly 31 when she was just 16. "
Maybe Kentucky is just trying to be number one in something?
Whatever, fuck those people, and don't let your kids near 'em.
