Does anybody have this story on a site that's even a little credible? Seems like it would make international news. I googled it to find more sources, I don't care for most I've seen. Sounds like propaganda.

Well the "international news" are owned by people with political interests so not all important news becomes mainstream news only those that serve a propose.
Here are some more sources:

For many people the two go hand in hand. It's often hard to distinguish between religion/culture, especially to an outsider.
Culture and religion are two very different things.

There is something wrong with these people...you can say it's just the radicals or whatever, but this is Turkey, as a whole, making this legal. I stand by my personal views of Islam/Muslims, this just hardens those views. I think they're about 10,000 years behind in civilization.

I grew up in the cultural melting pot outside of Chicago. I met many wonderful, friendly people and the food is the absolute best, as diverse as the people.
I'm Native/Mexican American, I married a Serbian Orthodox man, first generation of his family born in the US. I joined his church when we married and saw for myself how intertwined food/culture/religion truly is, I believe it's similar for followers of Islam as well as other religions/cultures/ethnic groups etc.
I'm very open to a variety of cultures/religions but I'm extremely sensitive about child rape. Imo that's what Turkey wants to legalize/embrace because apparently it's such an integral part of who they are, they felt the need to act on it right away.
Apparently we don't share opinions or experiences. For me, bottom line, there's no compromise when it comes to child rape. Any culture/religion that embraces it disgusts me.

Now would be the time to go spread some American Democracy under the umbrella of human rights. This is twisted.

I thought by using the term American Democracy folks would see it as a facetious statement.

I seen all of those links, none of them are credible to me. The first is even called NSNBC, which is obviously supposed to look like MSNBC. There are sites with names similar to NBC ABC and CBS as well, they all publish fake sensationalized news that tricks people who aren't paying full attention to the URL.
As skeptical as I may be of the media, that fact about political interest goes both ways. There are political interests that would love to publish anything that makes Turkey look bad. It fit's perfectly with the "muslims are ass backward" narrative, especially with edrogan's recent behavior, but it's something I find difficult to hide if it really did happen.
