 here is a quote from Wikipedia: 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_the_United_States

"In 1880, the ages of consent were set at 10 or 12 in most states, with the exception of Delaware where it was 7.[104] The ages of consent were raised across the U.S. during the late 19th century and the early 20th century"

so 12 used to be THE HIGHEST age of consent in any of the states.

due to higher calories in diet and estrogenic environment girls reach puberty SOONER today than they did in 1880 and that doesn't even take into account that those were laws for WHITES and subhuman races mature even faster ...

anyone trying to prevent 12 year olds from having sex should be killed - period end of discussion
