It just gets better. Recently uncovered video indicates that Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson may have fringe views other than those on homosexuality and civil rights.

I haven't heard back from them yet and I don't expect to.

A sick man that hates people for their differences.

Marriage License in Louisiana
***snip***
Applicants under 18 years of age must also bring:
Both parents to sign consent forms. Both parents must bring their driver's license.
If one parent has full custody, that parent must come in to sign consent forms with his/her driver's license and custody papers showing full custody. Joint custody requires both parent's consent.
Applicants under 16 years of age also require a judge's consent.

I would never consent to my daughter getting married at age 16 or 15 and probably not even at age 17.

(17,621 posts)11. Dear Phil Robertson:
For a woman, marrying at 15 means being stuck in the backwoods of Louisiana or some other Godforsaken shithole with the likes of you, raising a houseful of kids and living in poverty. Let's just say some things really are worse than death.
Love,
Brigid
