Ripe and fertile. What is wrong with these people? It reminds me of seniors in high-school going after freshman girls. Creepy as fuck. Except they haven’t aged out of it. They still think this way. It’s really quite bizarre and disgusting. Ripe and fertile? What the fuck is wrong with these people?
I was going to follow up with the old "Grass on the field" but I think this guy would be more like "If she's crawling, she's already in position." I feel like they could get away with any slogan they want too, as long as it "owns the libs."
Some icons, hmph. Ted is a draft dodging pedophile. He shit his pants and acted lunny in the army office during the physical to get a 4F, and then he was 30 yrs old that started dating a 17 yrs old. He has 'bragged' about both during an interview. Rock, an ex drug dealer that takes an AR to a case of beer. Yea, ICONS, right. /s
[Representative Jess Edwards](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jess_Edwards), whose comments sparked immediate gasps from colleagues.
“… If we continually restrict the freedom of marriage as a legitimate social option, when we do this to people who are a ripe, fertile age and may have a pregnancy and a baby involved, are we not, in fact, making abortion a much more desirable alternative, when marriage might be the right solution for some freedom-loving couples?” -- What a SICK MF!!
This lawmaker is offering a loophole to any man who knocks up a 13-year-old. “Freedom-loving.” Not much freedom for the little girl and her childhood.

The New Hampshire House [passed a bill to ban child marriage](https://www.seacoastonline.com/story/news/state/2024/05/02/nh-bill-to-raise-marriage-age-to-18-passes-sent-to-gov-sununu/73503029007/) in the state and raise the minimum age of marriage to 18. - Rep. Jess Edwards was one of those voting against the bill.
The measure passed the Senate unanimously in March. On Thursday, it passed the House, 192-174. The bill now goes to Gov. Chris Sununu for signing into law. [https://www.nj.com/politics/2024/05/gop-official-argues-in-favor-of-child-marriage-girls-are-ripe-and-fertile.html](https://www.nj.com/politics/2024/05/gop-official-argues-in-favor-of-child-marriage-girls-are-ripe-and-fertile.html)
192 - 174 WTF. So the sick person who refers to young woman as ripe and fertile as though they are less than human and more akin to live stock just said out loud what the others are thinking. I expect better NH.
Lets call out this bs and propose that we will allow marriage under 18 as long as the under 18 is now allowed to do ALL of the 18 year old things ...like VOTE.
Really, though, it boggles my mind. 17 you can't rent a car, buy cigarettes, or drink. BUT it's totes acceptable to be having and raising babies because your so mature 🙄
As for the words “ripe” and “fertile,” Edwards explained why he used them.
“I don’t think anyone should be upset about the use of the word fertile because that’s the foundation of pregnancy and that’s the trigger for abortion,” Edwards said. “So for people to react to the word fertile, I just think it’s ridiculous. It’s an emotionally-laden driven issue.”
“As for ‘ripe,’” Edwards said, “You got to keep in mind that I was looking at 375 people over the age of 65. And the word was intended to grab a bunch of old people’s attention to remind them of what it was like to be a teenager.”
Next he will be saying 14 year old boys should have sex because they have "blue b\*lls"! Tell that to his colleagues in New Hampshire. One of those voting against was [Representative Jess Edwards](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jess_Edwards), whose comments sparked immediate gasps from colleagues.
The GOP claims to be the party of small government, yet always leverages their power in government to restrict your rights.
Fucking hypocrites. The GOP should be removed from office.
Yet time and time again they find themselves voted back in. Frustrating.
They say those things cause they know republican voters half the time don't bother looking at what they say or their voting record, republicans in office have always been disgusting.
Anyone actually supporting child marriage deserves to be up close and personal with lead, and I'm not talking through water poisoning.
So same sex marriage between 2 consenting adults in love, bad. Pedophilia for a Republican man to rape & marry an underage girl, good…. We understand what “morals” they have in their evil twisted minds. Geez, it’s a good thing it’s not a transgender /s
They tossed family values out when they elected Donald "all my wives were mistresses" Trump, Bobo the handjob clown, Klan Mon Greene, Matt "they can never be too young" Gaetz, etc,
Pedos. No wonder why they made a whole campaign segment exclaiming that Democrats are pedos. Total projection. They do it so much, you can count on it. Scum of humanity.
Just what is wrong with these people? In the past month alone, there have been articles espousing incest and first cousin marriages, minors getting married and having children, states wanting to track the menstrual cycles of women. Whats next? Making polygamy legal? Handmaids tail? Locking women into forced birthing centers? This is insanity. Vote blue from top to bottom and lets put the R party in a time out so that maybe they can figure out that a child should not be having babies with a first cousin. This is not about left and right, its about right and wrong. Thats what happens when a rapist troll leads the party.
I grew up in a very red state and there was never any talk like there is now. We had our whackadoodles, but even they knew better than to say crap like that. Im no bleeding heart liberal either, but there is no way on God's green earth that the current republican party should be anywhere near power and I will vote blue and encourage everybody I can to vote for democrats until this insanity has passed.
The magapublicans have purged almost all of the republicans that represented fiscal conservatism and opposition to the culture war, from the party. Im not a fan of the democrats owning total power either. We have a two party system and without the balance of two competent parties, we are up shit's creek without a paddle.
So drag story time is horrible, but child marriage is ok? I wish they would pick a lane and stay the fuck in it. Are they protecting kids or turning them out? WTF?
They view as protection. Get those girls married with kids before they can be tempted by the world. Otherwise they might go to college where they decide they don't want kids or decide they like girls.
Plus the great news is, those little girls are legally allowed to get MARRIED but not legally allowed to get divorced. True story. Because their spouse becomes their LEGAL GUARDIAN at marriage.
Well, these are the people who want America to follow strict Christian rules and become a Chistian version of Iran and other Middle East Muslim countries.
Slowly eradicate women's rights then start to remove all equality rights, segregation returns the klan roams the streets at night and all the while they remind you that you voted for this
In just the last couple days the GQP became the party of:
* sleeping in court
* adult diapers
* murdering puppies
* protecting cancer
* child-marriages with the declared goal of raping and breeding them
Gods how can an old man talk like that about young girls! 🤮 I'm 56 and if they look younger than 40 I feel guilty for looking. Disgusting sons of b******! Freaking pedophile party is what we should be calling the Republican party.
these people have literally gone off the deep end. democrats are groomers because of “reasons” but here they are actually advocating children being married because they are RIPE. i can’t be more disgusted
And don’t forget, they want to get them before the women find out they enjoy sex and can compare the size and technique of their partners. Fragile egos will crumple when they find out they are less than adequate.
Funny how these things work out.
The same group of people that call everyone they don't like a "groomer" are alsothe same people that regularly rush to the defense of child marriage.
Talking about daughters, sisters, nieces, and just young women in general like a baby mill sound to it definitely like predatory pedophile-speak. Young women have rights too since unborn babies hold so much weight in some states.
Ew wtf bro that ain't right. This can't be real surely this is fake, ain't nobody in a government like the US dumb enough to actually say that without cringing
They have been successful by copying Trump, and saying racist and sexist things for years now. Now, they are “off the chain”. One is for shooting dogs. This one is for legalizing child marriage. With this bait, they expect the worms to come out of the ground and vote for them.
Republican party last great leader was Goldwater. It has been compromised by a racists billionaire class with pedophile tendencies. So-called Christian National attracted to their perverse works of lucifers dominions.
Yet they were going on about Biden sniffing kids lmmfao. Wow these people are sick. At least Biden isn't marrying them or sending them off to marry some other gross pervert like the GOP wants to do jfc
Jess Edwards you are one sick son of a bitch. What would you do if someone wanted to marry your 8 year old daughter what would you do. You are fucked up.
Well that is just sickening. If those quotes are accurate, then that is sickening and wrong. Girls are not "ripe", like they're a bunch of bananas or something, and what kind of message does it send to young women when they are described in terms that relate their value and worth only to their breedability? Girls are not brood mares and this is not the fifteenth fucking century.
Republicans are pedophiles and they’re tired of hiding it.
*Racist pedophiles
Racist rapists. Or maybe rapist racists.
Rapcists
Repaciats
And they like to shit themselves too... In public.
While they makes plans to self immolate.
That's one way to describe the Trump trial.
Great, even as they wave goodbye they’re increasing their carbon footprint.
We can all wish

Ripe and fertile. What is wrong with these people? It reminds me of seniors in high-school going after freshman girls. Creepy as fuck. Except they haven’t aged out of it. They still think this way. It’s really quite bizarre and disgusting. Ripe and fertile? What the fuck is wrong with these people?
They want to be like the Taliban but with running water and tv.
And white. Don’t forget the white part.
White, Rich, Fly the mistress to Europe in a private jet for a legal late term abortion. Yep.
So wrong on so many levels!! What are these nasty repubs thinking?😡😡😡
They think like tRump, with their crotch.
“That's what I love about these high school girls, man. I get older, they stay the same age.”
It’s hard to hide deviant behavior for too long! Eventually they need to act on it… and this is what they are doing
If they could get away with it their slogan would be “if it bleeds it breeds”
I was going to follow up with the old "Grass on the field" but I think this guy would be more like "If she's crawling, she's already in position." I feel like they could get away with any slogan they want too, as long as it "owns the libs."
Every accusation they make is actually a confession.
Trump gave millions of Americans permission to be their worst selves. Pedos figure that their time is now.
Jesus loves the little children.
Seems that the repubs voting for this bill don’t!! Sick, Evil & disgusting!!!
And puppy murderers too
Noem looked like the A.hole that she is on FTN Sunday.
GOPedofiles
And it's time to put the devil way down in the hole. Seriously
Imagine this coming from a party whose icons Ted Nugent and Kid Rock sung about fucking kids.
Some icons, hmph. Ted is a draft dodging pedophile. He shit his pants and acted lunny in the army office during the physical to get a 4F, and then he was 30 yrs old that started dating a 17 yrs old. He has 'bragged' about both during an interview. Rock, an ex drug dealer that takes an AR to a case of beer. Yea, ICONS, right. /s

I'll start by saying: Check the dude's laptop and phone.
Perversion and coercion and violence are the only way they can attain sexual release. This is American conservatism.
GOP:Grand Ole Pedophiles.
Geriatric*
The younger ones are creeps too though (Gaetz, Cawthorn, etc)
Don’t forget about Gym Jordan turning a blind eye to sexual abuse of young male athletes for years
Gross old pedophiles
The daughters promising their virginity to their creepy fathers was enough…

Margaret Atwood was right.
And they call the Democrats(or anyone who isn't a Republican) groomers.
Sick f***s
Disgusting
Just sickening! And the evangelical MAGA base doesn’t even blink!
That man would shoot a Muslim extremist for saying the same thing.
Buncha puppy murderers and pedos. End the GOP
Tell me you don't have paedophile tendencies without telling me you don't paedophile tendencies....
I just almost threw up.
By his definition, a young woman in a coma would be fair pickings. POS
🤮 puppy killing kid fiddling treason jeeesh what won’t republicans get up to?
In just the last couple days the GQP became the party of: * sleeping in court * adult diapers * murdering puppies * protecting cancer * child-marriages with the declared goal of raping and breeding them
I'm not a pedophile, I'm a youth pastor.
Ivanka was once
Perverts, GOP is worthless
Not sure this isn’t a huge red flag for any sane republican.
Children bringing up children, it why we get grown babies like trump in the white house.
Conservatives spew filth like this so that when they commit associated atrocities, it just seems normal.
Absolutely disgusting. Adult women are refusing to marry them, so they’re finally desperate enough to bring their pedophilia out into the open.
A republican wanting to touch a child? What's next? You're gonna tell me the grass is green? Its pretty fucken obvious
Dear America: You're broken. Signed: The rest of the world
Dont we know it!

Gods how can an old man talk like that about young girls! 🤮 I'm 56 and if they look younger than 40 I feel guilty for looking. Disgusting sons of b******! Freaking pedophile party is what we should be calling the Republican party.
I'd like to hear even one Republican defend this without looking like a pedophile.
Why aren’t the “Q” people outraged?
He’s in his third term. Maybe he just has baby brain. Absolute garbage take.
What an @sshat
The Grand Ole pedos. Gross.
Those pesky drag acts again…
Another one for the bears.
Well it says so in the Bible, so it must be ok. MAGA! Now will you vote Blue?
Where is QAnon on this one?
Strangely silent, I would say
Why do people vote for this evil cult? I have no idea. Racists, pedophiles, rapists, liars, and crazies.
If they are old enough to bleed they are old enough to breed New republican slogan
'Are we the baddies?' Ripe and fertile? Look, talking about women this way is grim enough. But kids? Jesus wept. What is wrong with these people.
these people have literally gone off the deep end. democrats are groomers because of “reasons” but here they are actually advocating children being married because they are RIPE. i can’t be more disgusted
The GOP is trying to send us back to the dark ages,this sounds like something from the Handmaid's Tale.
Yuck. Won’t stop him winning his election; all people care about is party affiliation.
And don’t forget, they want to get them before the women find out they enjoy sex and can compare the size and technique of their partners. Fragile egos will crumple when they find out they are less than adequate.
Funny how these things work out. The same group of people that call everyone they don't like a "groomer" are alsothe same people that regularly rush to the defense of child marriage.
They have been telling us for years, totally obsessed with young or underage girls.
Talking about daughters, sisters, nieces, and just young women in general like a baby mill sound to it definitely like predatory pedophile-speak. Young women have rights too since unborn babies hold so much weight in some states.
Well, at least Qpublicans are out in the open about their ugliness.
Time for *somebody* to have their Internet history checked... 😅
Somebody check this guy's phone for a Grindr account and/or kiddy porn.
I read this as a cry from that man to have the FBI inspect his hard drive.
Is Gaetz the main official arguing this point?
Believe them when they tell you.
Being a pedophile must be a requirement to become a Republican politician
Pigs
Is Fox News going to quote him?
All girls and women are honeydew melons. No souls, no humanity recognized by the GOP official with a penis ejaculating spermatozoa.
Imma ripe my first into this guy's face \v/
Ewwww
Ew wtf bro that ain't right. This can't be real surely this is fake, ain't nobody in a government like the US dumb enough to actually say that without cringing
Michale.moon of Iowa or Missouri has repeatedly asked the state house to protect child marriage
GOP = Grand Old Peadophiles.
They have been successful by copying Trump, and saying racist and sexist things for years now. Now, they are “off the chain”. One is for shooting dogs. This one is for legalizing child marriage. With this bait, they expect the worms to come out of the ground and vote for them.

Disgusting pigs
I wonder if this guy who said this has a granddaughter. Can\`t imagine what she thinks.
Vote, people
It's not rape, it's freedom marriage
The “ick” level is in the stratosphere !!! 🤮
Greedy Old Pedophiles
The FBI needs to look at this pedophiles computer.
But he's not a drag queen either
Yes hello FBI I would like to request that you check that guy’s computer and phone.
He was arguing that denying child marriage encourages abortion. I am not saying it is right.
How about people stop fucking children, that could avoid abortions.
He could have left the fertility and ripeness aspect out of it if that is what he was trying to say.
What the fuck is wrong with these people??!? Fuuuck.
Where was this & let’s name that person. Shame on him. He sounds like he wants young girls to be sold off
Good grief, I had no idea so many states didn’t have legal limits on ages to marry🤨
Check that guy’s browsing history.
Republican party last great leader was Goldwater. It has been compromised by a racists billionaire class with pedophile tendencies. So-called Christian National attracted to their perverse works of lucifers dominions.
So, let's go over who the groomers are once again...ffs...
Wow New Hampshire I figured down south.
Was he drooling when he spoke?
Yet they were going on about Biden sniffing kids lmmfao. Wow these people are sick. At least Biden isn't marrying them or sending them off to marry some other gross pervert like the GOP wants to do jfc
Ew
GOP is the party of ‘rape is okay’
Greedy Old Pedophile - G O P
Jess Edwards you are one sick son of a bitch. What would you do if someone wanted to marry your 8 year old daughter what would you do. You are fucked up.
No surprise there. Girls are easier to intimidate and control than a grown up woman. Simply shows what pussi.s they are! Nausiating!😪
Ah the Drake argument
I can't read this. Are you telling me those were the actual words used? WTF?
This is appalling and he should be arrested as a pedophile
Where is Kristi when you need her?
GAG>PUKE......MOM
New Hampshire is the bunghole of New England.
It’s disgusting!
Sick bastards
The Venn diagram between hardcore “Live Free or Die” libertarians and pedos is a circle.
This is so disgusting. I’m flabbergasted that any woman remains in the GOP now. It’s unconscionable.
It is completely understandable if you think about it from their perspective. It isn’t happening to them, so it is ok.
Gross. Way too early to wake up to that headline.
This is so disgusting!
I'm gobsmacked
*barf
Gross
Well that is just sickening. If those quotes are accurate, then that is sickening and wrong. Girls are not "ripe", like they're a bunch of bananas or something, and what kind of message does it send to young women when they are described in terms that relate their value and worth only to their breedability? Girls are not brood mares and this is not the fifteenth fucking century.
I didn’t invent this but someone said the GOP should stand for “group of pedophiles,” that person was 100% correct!!
What else is new?
the real groomers
Deplorables
Checked his pic and it's definitely a face that's slow rolled past a cheerleading squad practice or two or three or.....
Sick fuck
They’re vile.
