>>28 Good. Now keep this here, but copy/paste also to the signal boost thread or the help in numbers thread. You had errors, and I tried correcting them:
I'd like to introduce you to Luiza Goilabiyeva. She is 17 years old and forced to marry a 57 year old. Before you say, "yeah, so what? This is done in many cultures" I want to correct you. Luiza's family was threatened, her boyfriend was nearly beaten to death, and her pleas against the marriage were ignored. Now her Honeymoon and the rest of her life will be filled with marital rape and broken dreams, while politicians and the press in the country claim this is a happy and consensual marriage.
This isn't "culture", this is putting a gun to someone's human rights and telling them to either get married to a sleaze ball in a country where a polygamous marriage is AGAINST THE LAW, or he will kill everyone you love.
Oh, and did I forget to also mention that this man is already married with children and resides in a country where polygamous marriages are illegal? However, because he has buddies in politics, the entire government is willing to look the other way and call this a legal marriage.
The Dollars is admittedly not a large organization, but there are certainly members here with accounts on 9GAG, twitter, tumblr, and so on. What we need to do is post the same article we have posted on our News board (
Here) on one of your other accounts.
Simply advertise it.
If we can't do anything, someone surely can. It's not much but even if it helps like 1% to move this thing off the ground, then we succeeded.
For example if everyone posted this on their facebook account or twitter, there is a chance that someone influential might see it, and react.
The Chinese government tried desperately to smother the Umbrella Revolution in Hong Kong, but they only succeeded in making it loud enough to be heard all over the world.
If you want a mission, here it is.
Shove this into people's faces so they can't forget.
Remember, what this man has done is blatantly illegal; with enough voices acknowledging this, he will be forced to answer for his actions and suffer the consequences."

Now that I know how you plan to go about this, I can use the Dollar's account on change.org to create a petition.
Don't forget to include the picture and the link to the news article.
