Vanity - Lookee, Lookee. Alabama Marriage, year ago!!!

Posted on 11/11/2017 9:19:54 AM PST by JLAGRAYFOX

Lookee, Lookee, thirty or forty years ago, the great state of Alabama marriage laws allowed for girls aged thirteen to sixteen could get married with parental approval. Girls of sixteen and older could marry without parent approval. Today the law states that girls sixteen to eighteen can get legally married with parental approval. Girls eighteen and older can marry without parent approval.

Knowing Alabama as well as I do, thousands of girls aged thirteen to sixteen dated with older men heavily, and got married during that time frame thirty and forty years ago!!!

So.....these young ladies accusing Judge Roy Moore could never have been abused, since all these woman accusers were of acceptable age to marry and, chose by their own free will, to date with Judge Moore, on numerous occasions, if that, in fact, actually happened.

If none of the abuse accusations ever occurred..."GAME OVER"...Ladies!!! And.....if they of their own free will, dated the Judge....Multiple times..."GAME OVER" also. Go Judge, Roy Moore!!! End of story!!!

And I am telling you from Oregon, that my 16 year old girlfriend dated a 30 year old man with her parent’s consent! My mother did not approve, and I could be friends with her any more. Deb married the man when we graduated in ‘76. Culture changes over time.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_marriage_in_the_United_States

In the 25 states [1] which have an absolute minimum age set by statute, this age varies between 13 and 17, while in 25 states there is no statutory minimum age if other legal conditions are met. Although in such states there is no set minimum age by statute, the traditional common law minimum age is 14 for boys and 12 for girls - ages which have been confirmed by case law in some states.[2] Over the past 15 years, more than 200,000 minors married in US, and in Tennessee girls as young as 10 were married in 2001.[3]

Would I be following Washington Post standards by saying that Mitch McConnell likes little Asian girls, because his wife is 5'3"?

The age of consent in Alabama is 16 and it was 16 in 1979.

But all this stuff isn't designed to make Moore a criminal, but to make him a creepy old guy.

I don't know if it will cost him the election, but he's bound to lose a lot of respect at home and in DC (if he does get there).

A very good friend of mine was 17 when he got married to his 15 yr old girlfriend. 47 years later they are STILL married.

By the was she was NOT pregnant at the time. They waited 4 yrs before having kids.

Looking up Leigh Corfman shows a birthdate of May 1964. That would make her 14/15 in 1979. Went to public records on the internet.

I also found the birthdate of May 1964 for Leigh Corfman.

I did a little digging and found that her mother was born in June 1946 so that means she was shy of 18 when Leigh was born.

Also her mother (Nancy Cooper Corfman Wells) married Leigh's father (Robert Ray Corfman) in Feb 1963. So Leigh's mother was only 16 when she married.

There are no sexual abuse allegations from three of the women. Just that he dated them. Not illegal and like you say, entirely above board in Alabama back in the day.

The one women who claims to have been touched (not raped or any sexual act), now appears to have been 17 years of age and not 14 as she claims.

She also has a history of bad life choices, been divorced three times and owed money to the IRS and arrested for some misdemeanor offenses. Not exactly credible.

Her other problem, is that she has accused three different pastors in three different congregations of sexual abuse. Charges were deemed not credible and thrown out.

So from what I can glean from these attacks, is that Moore did nothing illegal or wrong. Only the allegations and innuendo are being pushed by the Washington Compost and are made in such a way as to make it appear that Moore was involved in immoral, illegal and disgusting behavior.

Absolutely, no evidence, proof or witnesses are provided to support these gutter allegations. If this was a courtroom, the judge would have thrown the whole thing out of court as laughable by now.

Nice try GOP and Washington Compost but I think the astute voters of Alabama have seen right through this subterfuge.

It is an amateurish, feeble attempt to knock their own candidate out of the race and they have failed.

>At first I thought Washington Democrats and Republicans hated Roy Moore for his fearless defense of religious liberty and support of Constitutional principals.

Now the truth has been revealed that the Washington elite are merely jealous that Moore could date women 14 years his junior without having to pay 5000 dollars a night for the privilegeWhoa! A gem of an observation, and one suspects there is more truth to this than not. A sure thread winner contender!
