NH Rep Objects To Child Marriage Law Because “Ripe And Fertile” Underage Girls Might Opt For Abortions
If you go to the link, you will see one state representative claimed he started having relations with his wife when they were 16 and they did not need input from anyone else. He then claims that he considers they were married from that point, even though they did not get legally married until they were adults. Which says a lot of about his mind set. Seriously, nothing in the bill prohibits what he and his girlfriend did. They had teenage sex. They did not get married then. The bill says girls can not be forced to get married if they are minors. Period. Because if there were loopholes people who want an as the article says one representative described minor girls as a ripe, fertile age and may have a pregnancy and a baby involved. He sees girls / women as breeding stock. Just something to carry the man’s issue to term. Hugs. Scottie
The New Hampshire Bulletin reports:
The New Hampshire House passed a bill Thursday raising the legal age of marriage to 18, sending the legislation to Gov. Chris Sununu’s desk after years of advocacy. Senate Bill 359, which passed 192-174, states that “no person below the age of 18 years shall be capable of contracting a valid marriage, and all marriages contracted by such persons shall be null and void.” Under present law, that age is 16.
Rep. Jess Edwards argued that taking away the possibility of marriage could lead more 16- and 17-year-olds to abortion. “If we continually restrict the freedom of marriage as a legitimate social option, when we do this to people who are a ripe, fertile age and may have a pregnancy and a baby involved, are we not in fact making abortion a much more desirable alternative, when marriage might be the right solution for some freedom-loving couples?” he said.

Look for hidden partitions on his hard drive. He has probably named it Daddy’s Little Sluts.
Wtf?!? What America needs a group of 16yo girls having babies sounds very Gilead. I’d check this guys hard drive at home
Soooo…this creep believes that fertility is the only requirement for marriage. Someone hide that poor, Ohio 10 year-old impregnated rape victim from this deviant codger.
A “ripe, fertile age” – really? Normal people haven’t referred to others like this since about the seventeenth century.
16ty Century is where the Reichwing wants to take us all.
You mean, before the upstart, rebellious American colonies declared independence from the King of England?
Speaking of which… I’m sure all those Reichwingers in the US celebrate July 4th, commemorating our throwing off a real, visible tyrant and dictator. Interesting that they not only accept, but would have us submit to, an invisible dictator! And he’s the One Special Invisible Dictator who may not be questioned!!
NO THANKS!!
“looking for Groomers, LOOK NO FURTHER” Thank you for saying that out loud.
Caps are my addition to the quote
He really wants women to be chattel. And 172 state representatives voted against the bill. That’s scary.
The GOP wants to shrink the government to the size that will fit in a Fallopian tube.
Probably wants to do away with no-fault divorce, too.
Teen wives can’t legally hire a divorce attorney. Edwards said he would write an amendment to the bill to allow underage wives to hire divorce attorneys, but he didn’t actually do that.
Don’t know if you saw this earlier, different state, but…
NPR: Pregnant women in Missouri can’t get divorced. Critics say it fuels domestic violence
Destonee requested she be identified by only her first name. She says she still lives with abusive threats from her ex-husband. She couldn’t end her marriage because Missouri law requires women seeking divorce to disclose whether they’re pregnant — and state judges won’t finalize divorces during a pregnancy.
. . . and the state won’t fund enough safe-house shelter beds.
“If we continually restrict the freedom of marriage as a legitimate social option,”
– like 2 men or 2 women?
There is no “rape/incest” exception for abortion but there is a “mistress/daughter” exception.
Rep. Jess Edwards voted against any exception for rape or incest, but changed his mind to allow for abortion in the case of non-viable fetuses, because he “doesn’t think the government should play Solomon between a live woman and dead fetus.” < eyeroll >
Fucking old goat actually thinks 16 year old girls are salivating over musty old balls like this dude clearly has. Hopefully by the time these young ladies turns 18, they’ll run far far away from NH.

Court: Cultist GA GOP Official Voted Illegally 9 Times
Republicans are convinced there is massive voter fraud. Yes there is a small amount, they are correct. But that is because they are the ones doing it. I want you to note this republican guy voted fraudulently 9 times knowing he couldn’t do that. A black woman in Texas got five years for voting as a person on parole after being told she could vote by poll workers and her parole officer never told her she couldn’t vote. Plus her vote was a provisional one that was not counted, his were counted. An appeals court overturned her sentence but of course asshole AG Paxton himself a criminal, bigot, and racist has appealed that to have her sentence reinstated. DeathSantis in Florida sent police to arrest black former felons on charges of voter fraud that were later all dismissed after the election. It is all about republican racists suppressing the black vote. Republicans have no platform, they have no interest in helping the country, no interest in serving the public. They are interested in helping their bank accounts and serving their business big money donors so to do those things they need to be rulers not representatives. Hugs. Scottie
Every accusation is a confession when it comes from the far right.
Voting nine times should have given him another felony conviction, and jail. There was a woman who was given a jail sentence of several years for voting at all.
oh, wait! She was black. Never mind.
She was sentenced to 5 years. And she only voted provisionally, after she was told she was clear to vote
By an elections official and her parole officer.
Say her name! Crystal Mason!
A public reprimand is less than nothing. A $5000 fine for 9 votes is $555/vote. Campaigns can easily afford to buy their way to victory in swing states.
They came after Black Americans in Florida…this is racist and it is designed that way…
Crimes committed while on probation never please the court. Crystal Mason was on probation when she cast a provisional ballot. Our justice system has three tiers and the only way we will fix it is for everyone to vote blue no matter who and fuck your firmly held principles.
ETA: 9 times show intent!
$5k and a finger wag, that’ll stop em
“Pritchard has previously alleged the 2020 presidential election was fraudulent on his show, but now he has been found to have voted illegally.”
He wasn’t wrong. There was fraud. He perpetrated it.
I’m just laughing at the fact that you can have a FELONY conviction and still get elected to these GOP boards. These are the same people who will give you a 45 minute floor speech about personal responsibility and law & order.
election integrity is not the true goal of the GOP, its having control of elections so only Repubs can win
The face of voter fraud is NOT an immigrant or a minority…it is a WHITE AMERICAN
Five Red States Sue Over “Tyrannical” Move To Require Background Checks When Guns Are Sold At Gun Shows
What by my dogs that love gravy is it with these assholes and their ammosexual position. I just posted that police had to kill a 14 year old with a gun outside a school. What mythical world do they live in. While they have armed protection, often paid for by taxpayers and their kids go to secure private schools, the rest of us are living in the hellscape they are creating. And for what? The NRA is all but destroyed. So the need not worry about being on their wrong side. The culture war is all they have to run on, they offer no helpful policies for the public, just their wealthy donors and themselves. Hugs. Scottie
DeSantis Signs Bill Banning Sales Of Lab-Grown Meat, Claims Leftists Are Plotting To Make Everyone Eat Bugs

Rarely have I thought that a single quote would justify a diary — but after reading Yale historian, Timothy Snyder’s X thread that was posted yesterday — a clear-eyed delineation of the right-wing justices’ placement of dynamite at the door of Democracy, revealing how even the key objection to their inexplicable consideration of “immunity” is blunting what it really means, I felt it was important to place it here.
The link to the thread is here. The unbroken quote is below (the bolding within, mine):
Right-wing justices postulate Trump’s “immunity.” The objection is that this makes him a king. Not so. It’s much worse.
A king can be subject to law. Even George III was subject to law. The American Revolution was justified by the notion that he had overstepped the law.
This discussion of immunity is something else.
The justices are not discussing any constitutional system at all, including a constitutional monarchy.
Justices are instead flirting with the idea that a single person can be outside any constitutional system, outside the rule of law as such. What justices seem to find charismatic is dictatorship, specifically fascist dictatorship. It is making an exception for a person that attracts them.
That is the basis of Nazi legal theory (Carl Schmitt). The law and the constitution are just there so we can find the person, the Leader, the Führer, who breaks them, who makes an exception.Snyder then noted that he wasn’t making any specific claims that the justices “read Schmitt” — but that their “affinity for fascist law” is “troubling”.The point here, being: “immunity” isn’t simply making a president (and in this case, an ex-President and all future presidents) a “king” — it’s placing them beyond even that which kings are subject to.Fascism coming to America would no longer be a mere specter — a barricade or position from which we fight to protect our Democracy from the threat of those who would seek fascism here; it will have arrived. We would, from that point on, exist behind enemy lines. And existing there, we may find ourselves, as a people now all-but powerless against tyranny, longing even for the days of kings — who were, beneath their crowns, at least subject to the rule of law.
