US approved thousands of child bride requests over past decade

I'm going to love this thread. Every single person here agrees that this practice is messed up but it will still start a fight.
those posters were claiming to want civility in the other thread and immediately start a fight in a thread in which everyone should agree.
 
I'm tired of you posting thread transplants from other message boards. You're cluttering this place up with boring posts.
wtf are you even talking about? this was a top story on usatoday a few days ago. i meant to post it then but forgot until today.

Depends. Children separated from their parents to enter this country is nothing new. What is new is that these immigrant kids were actually allowed to legally immigrate in exchange for sex.

Agreed. We need more posts about razorblade ads. What would be great is if bic came out with an ad telling us that child porn is bad and shick responded with an ad talking about how Christians should worship Mohammed. Or better yet, gillette could run an ad retracting their earlier ad and tell us to shave first and beat our wives 2nd, after brutally raping them of course. I envision an ad where leatherface and Jason vorhees are talking about which razor really reflects their values, then a woman cashier points out that neither of them shave so they go into a rage and kick over a display at the gamestop next door.

did you even read the story? the story is about kids being forced to marry older men to help the men get into the us.
 
age discrimination. *
In nearly all the cases, the girls were the younger person in the relationship. In 149 instances, the adult was older than 40, and in 28 cases the adult was over 50, the committee found. Among the examples: In 2011, immigration officials approved a 14-year-old’s petition for a 48-year-old spouse in Jamaica. A petition from a 71-year-old man was approved in 2013 for his 17-year-old wife in Guatemala.
