Not that I'm advocating this scenario, but can you imagine hearing your neighbor "married" a fucking child? Is this not why we used to form a posse to definitively say, absolutely the fuck not? By which I also mean finding said child's "guardians" to throw on the pyre.

I assume, of course, that religion is involved in their disgusting rationale.
