   The difference is, we don't venerate Henry III.

   We don't revere him as holy & beyond reproach.

   We don't think it's acceptable to kill people for drawing or sharing pictures of him.

   There are no countries passing pro-paedophile laws based on what Henry III did.

   Shit analogy 👇

     @HebrideanHecate Marrying off a 12 year old is pretty gross. But, it was not uncommon in the 14th century in Europe for royal girls to be married off for political reasons.
     
     A couple of thoughts;
     1) 12 is still too young, but 6 (or 9) is WAY too young.*
     2) Europe doesn't do that anymore.
     
     *IIRC, these young brides weren't generally expected to consummate the marriage until they were older. Any history buffs can correct me if I'm wrong.
     
     TL DR; oranges ain't apples.

     @GrumpyOldNurse @HebrideanHecate I always feel embarrassed on behalf of these people who make really piss-poor analogies, especially when they think they've been really clever.
