Can you show me the proof that parents are allowing child marriages in those states?Also a child most of the time, ranges between 12-13 and down.
It is estimated that nearly 248,000 children were married in the United States between 2000 and 2010, with 1% of the children being under the age of 14; that is 248 children a year.
In 86% of cases, child marriages are to adults, with at least 31% to an adult 21 or older. The youngest girl to marry between 2000 and 2010 is a Tennessee 10-year-old who married a 31-year-old man; and the youngest boy to marry is a Tennessee 11-year-old who married a 27-year-old woman.
Child marriage is generally more common in the Southern United States, with the states with the highest rates of child marriage being Idaho, Utah, Arizona, Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, West Virginia, and Missouri.
Yep, those good ole Southern conservative Republicans in California and Nevada.

So almost all of them were married at 16 or older, right? With a tiny fraction being married younger than that? Okay, got it. So, basically, young adults, most of them at their respective state's age of consent, getting married?
Sounds a trillion times better than having prepubescent children putting on drag and strip shows for perverted adults.
Do you hear that sound? That's the sound of your Equalization Tactics Plane crashing.
Oh, the irony:
ABC News broadcast a documentary, The Last Days of Michael Jackson, which used excerpts from the concert film This Is It and the music videos for Thriller and Black and White. The Michael Jackson estate sued ABC News and Disney, its parent company, for copyright infringement.
In its recently filed motion to dismiss the complaint, Disney asserted that it would not be intimidated by “overzealous copyright holders” such as the Jackson estate. It observed that “this case is about the right of free speech under the First Amendment, the doctrine of fair use under the Copyright Act, and the ability of news organizations to use limited excerpts of copyrighted works…for the purpose of reporting on, commenting on, teaching about, and criticizing well-known public figures of interest in biographical documentaries without fear of liability from overzealous copyright holders.”
Disney further underscored the relationship between fair use and the First Amendment. (The Supreme Court in two cases—Eldred v. Ashcroft and Golan v. Holder—has referred to fair use as a built-in accommodation in the Copyright Act to the First Amendment.) Disney argued that it incorporated short excerpts of songs, videos and other material featuring Jackson within the documentary “for the purpose of providing historical context and explanation tracing the arc and aspects of Jackson’s life and career—precisely what is contemplated and permitted by the First Amendment.” It contended that the estate’s lawsuit “constitutes an attempt to exercise unfettered control over public commentary and opinion on Jackson’s life and career.”
Disney is completely justified in relying on fair use to defend itself in this litigation. And because Canada has a parallel concept, fair dealing, Disney and other media companies can protect themselves against “overzealous copyright holders” if sued in Canada. But Mexico’s copyright exceptions are far more parsimonious than those in the United States and Canada. In the absence of a fair use provision in NAFTA, Disney and other media companies could find themselves on the losing end of infringement suits in Mexico.

Goddamn patriarchy! Listen up gals, y’all need to lie, I mean tell more truth and destroy these assholes lives.

Come on now:
Whatever he says his motives were, Mr. Presler’s presence in Baltimore reinforces the tired image of our failing urban cores. That the poor people in this dilapidated city can’t take care of their own neighborhoods and all the public officials around them have failed as well. The bureaucratic, all-talk Democrats strike again. If a crowd of volunteers could clean up 12 tons of trash in 12 hours, how incompetent and helpless must Baltimoreans be if they can’t manage it in decades, right?
Baltimore Sun editorial board opinion piece.
They make a few good points about an Obama newspaper appearing among the trash, and videos everywhere praising Trump for calling attention to the problems in Baltimore. I have no doubt whatsoever there's some political mugging going on here.
But, it's still people cleaning up trash. Framing this is somehow undermining locals is something out of an Onion piece, not any local paper that wants to be taken seriously.

Supposedly it was an ex football player that told Trump to call out Cummings and Baltimore.
I’ll look for the video.

The paper even tries to excuse the trash and talk about at one point how the trash wasn't cleaned up cuz drug dealers hide drugs in the trash and locals are scared to clean up the trash cuz the dealers threaten them.
I'm dead serious.
