Spreading this sort of nonsense about people because they disagree about politics is disgusting. You should be ashamed.

It is like he has no clue what Islam is about.

/facepalm

He is described as a "young man".

It was rape. And its not a minor thing - she was made to marry her rapist, can't you imagine how that must have felt.
I can't even be sure what happened, much less imagine how she felt about it or why.

If she thought it was ok I hardly think she'd have been describing it in the way she did.

Sorry the truth hurts you and many others on here. Liberals always point to Europe as a model the US should follow, and the age of consent is generally lower in European countries.

Which liberals actually support Muslim Sharia Law? It may not be as vocal as the Christian right, but it is there. The liberals just don't want to start unnecessary wars with Islam Which liberals don't want Roman Polanski facing justice for his crime? I'm not a liberal but I realize he has serious issues because his wife was killed in the Manson murder (Sharon Tate.) Not condoning the crime but that messes with your head.

It's statutory rape meaning it is rape because by age she couldn't give consent. She may say "yes" (I honestly don't know if she did or didn't) but she still cannot consent to the act. Understand?

What are you talking about? You posted no truth, just your own rambling prejudices and dull-witted misconceptions. Run along now and go find all those posts where I pointed to Europe as a model for something.

Oh wait, you might find one about the bistros in Paris having good, inexpensive wine and not rushing patrons.

Age of consent might be lower in many European countries but they don't allow forced marriage of underage children - someone getting an 11 year old pregnant would be going to prison, not to their wedding.
