When will the law go after Muslim polygamists/child abusers?

What I do not understand is why any of these women given the choice would leave their children with authorities. Seems really strange to be itching about authorities and then walk away from their own children to be left with the authorities.

On another point why were the women and children loaded up and removed??? Why not remove all men instead???

Just a simple thing I’ve noticed....but they haven’t “fronted” a single girl who said she married at 13 or 14 or 15 or 16. So I think this may turn into a large mess for the prosecutors to clean up later.

Poor babies.

First they came for the Branch Davidians, and I didn’t say anything because I wasn’t a Branch Davidian.

Then they came for the Mormon polygamists, and I didn’t say anything because I wasn’t a Mormon polygamist.

Then they came for the...

They are not Mormons, and you know it. Either they were never members of the Mormon church, or they have been excommunicated for joining a polygamist group.

Yeah, either way you sleice it- this is a mess.

Pretty much. Either the authorities allow what is essentially a pedophile ring to continue existing or they break it up, disrupting the lives of the brainwashed women and children who were taught to believe that there is nothing wrong with this practice.

Muslims who keep SLAVES in America are caught and essentially made to cough up YEARS of “back pay” at minimum wage.

I marriage between queers is considered acceptable, what is the medias problem with polygamy? Seems like a double standard.

Then they came for the pederasts, and I didn’t say anything because I wasn’t a pederast.

Police are allowed to lie in order to obtain a conviction. (at least a confession) The USSC says so.

It’s illegal. They are having sex with underage CHILDREN.

Did you know they have beds in their temple just for that purpose??

Read the various threads here. Lots of information.

I fear I have missed some important info from the beginning on this case, but it has troubled me. Is it really possible that just by labelling an area of land a “compound” (the pics I saw depicted what looked like a town to me btw) and the residents “cultists,” does that really mean that the police can take an entire community’s children? I am not claiming these people aren’t actually crazy cultists, but does that mean that they are presumed guilty because they live near an alleged abuser and go to his church? If my neighbor is accused of abuse, and happens to go to my church, does that mean that they will take my kids too?

So far all I hear about is one allegation of abuse by one child. How does that mean that 416 were allegedly abused? Isn’t that a massive leap? Why should we accept this kind of thing just because it involves a “cult” and a “compound?” Are there no legal qualifications to be met in this kind of thing?

I read somewhere last weekend that Warren Jeffords or whatever the cult leader's name is had gone to the other cult places before the move to Texas and taken children under 6yrs old and brought them to the complex without their parents. Now, I wonder why he did that and now it makes sense why none of the children seem to know their names or their parents!

Yes they ARE Mormons. They are Fundamentalists MORMONS. Just as there are Shia and Sunni Moslems, there are fundamentalist and mainstream Mormons.

Get used to it dear, you are bound to see this often.
