My argument is that making it legal for 9 year olds to marry opens up the flood gates for wide spread child abuse, children giving birth which is not advisable on health grounds and so on and so on.
You say even with laws in place 9 year olds will still have sex.
Well even with Islamic laws in place muslims will still disobey these laws but with the aditional factor that it is now perfectly legal for them to talk to a childs parents and get her to marry him.
With your logic I could just say we shouldn't waste money on a police force because good people shouldn't disobey the law, but they do.
I just provided you with stacks of examples where due to Islamic law on girls being married as young as 9 you DO see the following things.
Child abuse, lack of education for young girls forced into marriage, young girls dying trying to give birth, men beating their wifes (perfectly fine in islamic law) and so on.
Now you say domestic abuse happens in all cultures, do you think forced marriages happen more in islamic countries or in england, or america or france? What about forced marriages of children?
AHHHH HAAAAA right now I think we have got to the bottom of the problem, well in my opinion, laws and systems that prevent wrong doings are better than those that don't, so by you saying Islamic laws are not suppose to prevent wrong doings and that is fine by your standards it isn't by mine.
I enjoy living in a country with laws that do try and prevent wrong doings, especially towards things like men having sex with children, taking them out of education, getting them pregnant and beating them and so on.
It's just the fact that me and you have different standards.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
