Dude, I just did... It was illegal in Illinois as of 1819. In fact, Bigamy could be punished with 100 lashes at the time.

So Muslims with multiple wives get arrested in Illinois?
As of now, Massachusetts allows girls to marry at 12 with parental consent, while New Hampshire permits boys to marry at 14 and girls at 13, also with parental consent. However, these laws are subject to change, and many states have been working to raise the minimum marriage age.
It wasn’t illegal in the Utah territory which was part of the United States.
Well, I seem to recall lots of people saying really awful things about Muhammad. The founder of Islam. instead of peace be upon him they say literally the same thing those flyers said about Charlie Kirk. And frankly, it should be allowed. That type of thing has to be allowed and I’m a big fan of Islam.
The stuff you post is disgusting. <<<<<< FACT.
Did you forget that "the people" voted for Trump, knowing full well what he intended to do?
Nor do I understand those b'stards. Of all people to claim to be champions of "free speech"! Free speech was Charlie Kirks main theme but the "you-know-whose" slandered him and wanted him censored.
It’s could be something that can get somebody fired from a job. But I don’t think it warrants someone getting arrested…..
Your point ? I voted for Trump, and he has been doing great. He gets carried away sometimes in his speak, but he's doing great things for the country. Of course the left hates him because they've been getting away with murder and mayhem for quite sometime now. Attempting to brand Trump with what the left has been doing for year's is nothing but gaslighting in it's worse form, but they got nothing else so gaslighting it is for them.
GOOD people that murdered men already in jail.

JoeBob, I've noticed two different posting styles by you, the original and ^this^ new variation, gee, I wonder what the reason could be?You are a little confused. The Edmonds Act only applied in the TERRITORIES, and was specifically passed because of what the Mormon Cult was doing in Utah.
Marriage was considered (and largely still is) a State matter. In the State of Illinois, Polygamy was very much against the law in 1845.
Marriage Laws
Emily Dickinson once said, “The heart wants what the heart wants . . .So, what happens when what the heart wants is generally considered taboo? Many may raise an eyebrow at the idea of marrying their cousin, but the practice was long considered commonplace for those entrenched in communities...www.lawrencelore.org
The State of Illinois passed its first marriage law in 1819. Note that actual enforcement was somewhat complicated. Some types of marriages might be considered valid until voided by a court order. An example might be if both parties were drunk when deciding to get married. Other types of marriage are considered void even without a court order. Common law marriages have not been valid since 1905.
- Bigamy or plural marriages: Although popular in some parts of the world, plural marriages have been prohibited from 1819 to date. Bigamy had been punishable under Indiana Territorial laws by death. In 1819, Illinois reduced the sentence to “no less than 100 nor more than 1,000 lashes”—which would have probably resulted in death. It is doubtful if this was often enforced. One could always use the defense that you didn’t know if the first spouse was still alive. In later years penalties were much reduced.
My own special kind.
No, you didn't mention issues about China, you made specific insults towards Mrs. B131.
And please don't think you are special, I've been riffing on the LDS Cult since I got here in 2011, when you guys tried to fob the Weird Mormon Robot into the Presidency.

The LDS cult had been terrorizing the people of Illinois and Missouri for years with their Navou Legion and their Danite terror squads, including the attempted assassination of former Missouri Governor Lilburn Boggs.

They had watched Smith evade justice for years, from when he was convicted of fraud in 1825 in New York to the Kirkland Bank Scandal to the expulsion from Missouri, and just decided that the legal system wasn't going to deal with these guys, so they had to.
