The Republican president of Utah's Senate managed to change consent laws after a relative was accused of raping a 13-year-old. Newsweek reported a Salt Lake City Tribune piece that Senate President J. Stuart Adams suggested that the Utah Legislature change the law that would change the child rape laws. "Previously, as adults, 18-year-old high school students who had sex with a 13-year-old could face a charge of child rape, a first-degree felony," said the Tribune. "A conviction on that charge generally requires registration as a sex offender, while a conviction on the newly created lesser charge does not."

This comes from the state that stopped fluoridating water. Maybe there's a radiation leak from a nuclear plant somewhere in Utah or the LDS are bringing back 19th-century canons of treating young girls like chattel, following Trumpf, their second Messiah. Blech!

Not surprised.

Raping children is a GOP tenet.

Conservatives will make child brides the future of this nation.

Conservatives learned a lot from the Taliban.
