    Quick! Educate them. Send them free tickets to a Mises seminar or something!

    I have low expectations given how quickly they fled from the fight.

    Sadly, I think it's far more likely that they are exactly the type of poor, desperate replacements that will eagerly trade a vote for a free pony.

    Yeah that's not the politically correct thing to say. I'll just go ahead and fuel up the flamethrower for replies.

    U.S. investigates "child bride" cases among Afghan evacuees

    By Margaret Brennan, Bo Erickson
    Updated on: September 3, 2021 / 9:21 PM / CBS News

    U.S. authorities are now investigating the cases of so-called "child brides" among the Afghans who fled Afghanistan in the past few weeks and are now in U.S. custody both inside the U.S. and in facilities abroad.

    CBS News has learned that "several" Afghan women and girls who were evacuated to facilities in the United Arab Emirates have told officials that their families forced them into marriage outside of the Kabul airport so that they could be eligible for evacuation.

    A senior State Department official said authorities are taking the claims seriously and investigating. Human trafficking is a federal crime and also illegal in every state. It is not clear how the U.S. would handle the case of an Afghan evacuee found guilty of child trafficking.

    Makes it hard for them to deny those "vaccines" have been known to cause death.

    What am I saying? They never have any trouble at all lying.

    They all have a warlord culture.
    Then they fall into two camps, Sharia law on one side and Bacha Bazi on the other.

    Bringing them here will not help create an anarcholibertarian paradise.

    (Well, I guess there is one difference here - in the US, the burqa mask mandators and kiddie-diddlers aren't necessarily on distinct sides ...)

    Neither will any policy enacted or enforced by the US federal government.
