NEW YORK - To many in the United States, forced marriage sounds like an ancient and alien practice, something that might happen in remote corners of India or Pakistan, not in the heart of 21st century America.

The feminists’ true colors came out when the widespread silence descended upon Bill Clinton and his sexual assults/escapades way back when.
Only the ‘right’ to slaughter your children and eradicating Christianity matter to them. Literally.
Wait until 2 gay Muslims wnat to get married in a Mosque!
Farced marriage.
Aren’t the moozlums so “ahead of the times”?
“Wipe them out.”
“Wipe them all out.”
Perhaps Emperor Palpatine would have been more supported by the Jedis had he been speaking of Islam.
And they’re usually forced to marry a close relative. Disgusting beyond belief. Multi-culti!!
The “leave marriage to the churches” crowd should have an opinion on this.
Inbreeding is indeed disgusting. SOP in Islam.
