His face is so oily

I just thought of a possible immigration loophole.
Give me your thoughts.
Put them in work camps? I agree <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>
Is it possible for someone who is Mormon, or claims to be Mormon, to claim they're wedded to a few hundred people, perhaps thousands, then bring them all to the US?

Technically, it should work in theory, legally.
Very interesting.
Polygamy is still illegal (for now)
Really?
I thought it was legal, if you're Mormon or within select States.
No, not legal
Mormons did that thing they do where they claimed they got a new revelation that polygamy is bad now
Just like they decided in the 80s that black people weren't evil and could join their church
United States: Polygamy is illegal in all 50 states but not federally.[93] From about 1847 to 1857, in what is now the state of Utah, many Mormons practiced polygamy, which was widely condemned in the rest of the US. The US federal government threatened The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) and made polygamy illegal through the enforcement of Acts of Congress such as the Morrill Anti-Bigamy Act. The LDS Church formally outlawed the practice in 1890, in a document labeled 'The Manifesto'.[90][94] Small splinter groups from the LDS Church, such as Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and the Apostolic United Brethren still practice polygamy and awareness has been increased through television dramas such as Big Love and reality shows such as Sister Wives. Among American Muslims, a small minority of around 50,000 to 100,000 people are estimated to live in families with a husband maintaining an informal polygamous relationship.[93]
The logic of liberalism, combined with a desire to be accepting of Islam, will probably result in the eventual legalization of polygamy
At which point I fully expect Mormons to get back to their old habits
As well as plenty of shenanigans similar to what you described, of mega-marriages
By that logic, California should've already legalized polygamy.
Just haven't yet because they're still trying to protect gay marriage before going further down the slippery slope.
Lungfish is a mega autistic not worth engaging with
He went around calling people in the chat his enemies earlier
Super autistic
Interesting.
Started to moral fag and talk about how they are bad people
Smaritan, I am a more moral person than you, and a better person in general
The real world is going to roll you, imao
As a classical liberal, I don't see it as the role of the federal gov't to either recognize, legalize, or criminalize polygamy, @lungfish. By no means is does liberalism claim any altruistic intents, unlike what you'd more appropriately label social justice.
It looks like he's a troll but I swear he was dead fucking serious earlier
Jeremy of course you don't; literally every liberal agrees polygamy should be legalized, as does every libertarian. Only Christian conservatives like myself oppose it
Modern liberalism has certainly been hi-jacked.
Did I say it should be recognized, however, @lungfish? I recognize the importance of the traditional, family-unit.
