today i read a poem called "Police: Man sold teen daughter into marriage for cash, beer, meat."

it's basically about what it says. a man from california sold his 14 year old daughter to and 18 year old man for $16,000 and provide him with 160 cases of beer, 100 cases of soda, 50 cases of Gatorade, two cases of wine, and six cases of meat. but called the police when the man did not follow through.

is this a joke? is that all your daughter is worth to you? i mean, honestly, that's the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard. and after he didn't get his money, he tried to get his daughter back. do you think she's going to want to stay with you after you tried to sell her into marriage? honestly, i think that this man should definitely be punished for what he does because i'm pretty sure it's illegal to sell a human being.
