I'll go after the comments, except I don't want to use up this thread for yet another time I get to tell about polygamy in Utah. Suffice it to say, the girls who are being shuttled from Utah to BC are from polygamists families. The pligs are NOT stealing girls from monogamous Mormon households and selling them to dirty old men who have lots of teenage wives. The way of polygamy in Utah is a horrible one for the young girls, very little education, and much brain washing.

As far as Bella's unattributed comment about the funndies and the LDS church being in business owning together, I'm still waiting for documentation on that one. Again, I state: The LDS church does NOT condone or tolerate polygamy. Any member of the LDS church who is a polygamist is excommunicated immediately. We cannot even have sympathies with any polygamst group or the practice. David Leavitt did prosecute Tom Green for bigamy, failure to pay child support, and statutory rape, and won on all three counts in different trials. And for that, he caught a lot of grief "why don't you just leave them alone?", etc. A couple of the head leaders of the Kingston polygamist clan are now in prison for child rape and beating. But the heads of these clans have their womenfold so beaten down that even if they are being abused, it is hard to get them to come forward and press charges. The polygamists have a very closed, secretive society, and it is hard to break out.

"the girls who are being shuttled from Utah to BC are from polygamists families."

Thanks, UG, the article wasn't really clear, but thanks for clearing that up. I thought that perhaps ES may have been seen in one of her harp-playing appearances, and this could have been something that could have occurred. No harm meant.

I was not aware that girls were being "shuttled" until reading these articles. There are plenty of other articles on that web page that say exactly as you do - these women are brainwashed nothings.

Canada (Victoria) apparently condones these multiple "marriages."

UtahGirl, Thank You for your explanation on this matter. As you're probably aware, the post was in response to IamHD's article above the post as I stated in the first line, "I found these messages at a website regarding the topic you posted" made by members of that board. If you know any of those members, I'm sure they would discuss their knowledge and opinions with you since that's one of the many topics discussed at that site.
