What a sordid mess this cult has created...and our political leaders seem unable to stop the madness.

Maybe you can answer this: when they say “wives” they cannot be talking about legal wives right? I mean polygamy is illegal in this country still right?

I know that many Muslim men have multiple women who attend them but only one legal wife. In this country I mean. They bring them here by saying they are sisters or cousins and then just install them in their apartments/homes.

Perps of coerced under age marriage should be prosecuted, however, it's quite unamerican to insist community wide internment camps are the solution.

What solution do you propose that our constitution allow for?
Please keep in mind freedom of religion and due process.

That depends. May modern day polygamists do not even bother to marry under civil law. Often they view marriage as a religious matter of which the state has no control. As such, they feel no compulsion to seek the blessing of the state for their union, esp since their customs contradict law.

Others marry and then divorce the first wife under civil law but consider themselves married according to their religious believes. They then proceed through the next series of wives in like manner.
