I’m not sure why you think so.

The tagline could apply either to the women and children denied freedom by the asshole leaders of the FLDS.

Or to the denial of freedom to the FLDS members by the state.

It is more than obvious to me that the FLDS, like the original LDS of the 19th century (not today’s LDS) before it, is based on institionalized abuse of women and children.

Our presnt legal system is unfortunately not well suited to handling these cases. The remedy is to change the law so that it works, not to ignore the law, pretending that it says what we think it should.
