Re: Ohio man, 81, fatally shoots Uber driver, 61, after scammers target both of them

No, he needs to respond if he wants any type of respect from the posters here. Since you are not responding to what I am telling you, why should I tell you the state?

Re: Ohio man, 81, fatally shoots Uber driver, 61, after scammers target both of them

I think I'm seeing some confusion between laws governing the minimum age of consent for sex and the minimum age for marriage without parental consent. They are not necessarily the same. Here is the specific Utah statute that I am talking about: https://le.utah.gov/xcode/Title76/Chapter5/76-5-S401.2...

Re: 33 years with new questions

The same things leaders of and participants of mass movements get: power, recognition, respect (bordering on worship), special knowledge, participation in something that transcends this life.
