Very normal country where the fash fucks are spreading news calling LGBTQ+ people as groomers but this is considered normal in their eyes.
I mean I think this is oriented toward a couple that might be agreed 21/22 and the other is 19/20 if I felt like being charitable. I think they wrote the sign to be parallel to the legal language which is the real issue
Keep forgetting under 21 is a “minor” for alcohol in America. 18? Go ahead and fight in our Imperialist wars, get addicted to cigarettes, buy a gun, or star in a hardcore porn. But don’t you even think about getting a beer.
does it vary by state like that? that’s sort of what I think too, but I’ve never seen a sign in any bar I’ve worked at or been to that said anyone under 21 could be allowed in even with their parents. I’ve worked at restaurant bars that were just sort of off to the side from the main dining areas with no physical separation, and kids had to stay like 10 feet away even if their parents were sitting at the bar.
It definitely varies by state, I’ve seen “unless with parent/guardian or spouse” posted at liquor stores in places.
)I’d love to come into this thread an emphatically call OP a dope cause it’s not like someone under 18 would be allowed to be married anyway so it obviously only pertains to people between 18-21, but that’s not true in all states so this sign is implicitly welcoming child brides if it’s in some states
It explicitly is legal in many states for a minor to marry if they have the parent’s permission.
I think liquor stores are different, my parents used to take me sometimes when I was a kid and I still see people with kids at liquor stores. you just have to be 21 to buy stuff there. but bars are actually serving alcohol and I’ve never seen a child in one, it doesn’t really make sense to allow minors in since they can’t legally drink anyway
When I was 18 there were three states that would let me drink in a bar if accompanied by a parent. One was Wisconsin, I don’t remember the other two. I had a White Russian.
was that pre or post 2000? just to understand the time frame
I used to order white Russians at clubs when I was a piece of shit 22 year old lmao
In the US, you need a specific license that is more restrictive than the general one for serving alcohol if you want to be able to have attended minors on site. I think England has the same general framework (with different ages and requirements) but I have no idea about anywhere else. I’m dumb lol
to be able to have attended minors on site
sorry I’m confused lol. does that mean in a bar? or a restaurant that serves alcohol with a bar in it? I always thought that bars in the US were only for people of legal drinking age with no exceptions. and the biggest appeal of going to bar areas in restaurants for me is there’s no kids around
Technically the US has no federal drinking age, it’s just that every state has the same drinking age of 21. The federal gov will take away a big chunk of highway funding if they have it lower than 21 if I remember right.
This also leads to the exact specifics of the law being different in each state. Some states only the government can operate liquor stores, some you can buy liquor in grocery stores, sometimes bars let minors in, sometimes 18+, sometimes 21+.
the Taliban have a ban on child marriage
They haven’t done a very good job of enforcing their child marriage ban as far as I know however
of course they haven’t they aren’t exactly a functioning bureacracy
Well of course. In the US, traditionally older men marry minor girls. Normalizing LGBTQ would mean that young men might become victims too :Bwaaa:
It’s ALWAYS projection. A movement that owes as much to 4chan as American fascism is absolutely guaranteed to be full of pedophiles. This is actually why they believe in such obvious bullshit as the groomer narrative in the first place, they know they are like that and they cannot imagine anybody else to be better than them, as that would mean admitting they’re the sickest fucks in the entire world. so when they have a harddrive full of CP, it’s unimaginable to them that other people simply aren’t like that. No, that must be virtue signaling, just as they can’t imagine that other people actually aren’t racist, actually don’t have r*pe fantasies, actually don’t want to gas the homeless etc. etc.
this is exacerbated by the fact that whenever they see LGBT people, they are reminded there’s people who are so much less neurotic and repressed about sex than them. they cannot fathom that somebody without their idiotic hangups is also less of a perverted sex pest than them. it would be too threatening to how they see themselves.
the most generous reading is that they mean like a 20 year old married to a 21 year old since it’s a bar. but “adult spouse” is such an incredibly unsettling phrase you think they would word it better if that was the case.
I kinda want to check out my local Applebees to see if they have this sign since I think I’m in one the few states without legalized child “marriage”, or if it’s limited to the like 44 states where adults can marry 12 year olds. but I also don’t want to go to Applebees
