To say they spoke in monotone and were robotic, would be an understatement.

The more I 'hear' these women speak the more I wonder if (due to the imbreeding) they are just mentally slow or if there is wide spread use of mood altering drugs. The don't sound 'normal.' Their speech patterns are so 'tiny.' Little words, said with little girly voices.

I still, as a mom myself, cannot garner any sympathy for these women. Before the crying jag photo shoot and before they started to 'speak' I felt some compassion...now I just think what they have allowed to be done to their kids.

Anyone who has been born and raised in this cult has suffered severe and permanent psychological damage, starting in early infancy. Have you seen Carolyn Jessop's account of her husband "breaking" babies? From what I've read over the years about this cult, this sort of thing is the rule rather than the exception. And the husband Carolyn was describing doing this was Merril Jessop, the man who has been in charge of the YFZ compound.

“The method he would use with infants was a form of water torture,” Jessop said of her former husband. “He would spank the baby until it was screaming out of control, and then he would hold the baby faceup under a tap of running water so it couldn’t breathe. He would do this repeatedly. Sometimes, it would go on for an hour, until the baby was so exhausted it couldn’t cry anymore. This method he called ‘breaking them.’” http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24009286/

Flora Jessop, another woman who left cult several years ago describes the same sort of thing:

One of the things that they have declared is that God finds crying babies offensive, so they teach their babies not to cry between 6 and 15 months of age. They do this one of two ways: They repeatedly slap the faces of their crying babies or they hold their faces under running water. When you take away the voice of a baby, of a child, the only means of communicating that it is hungry, sick, hurting, any of those things, you own that child." http://www.kvbc.com/Global/story.asp?s=5201924

In any of the pictures or video footage of the children removed from the compund, have you seen any children who looked like they were crying? I haven't, not even in the cell phone photos that the women sent out of the supposedly horrible shelter conditions in which their children were suffering. They wanted to make it look as bad as possible, but they apparently couldn't find any crying children to snap a photo of. Scary.

How dare you say a thing like that? First take a crying child from it’s mother’s breast with jack-booted thugs carrying bazookas, now you accuse them of being retards.

—— INCOMING BULLETIN

The Colorado City/Hildale area has the world’s highest incidence of fumarase deficiency,[52] an extremely rare genetic condition which causes severe mental retardation. Geneticists attribute this to the prevalence of cousin marriage between descendants of two of the town’s founders, Joseph Smith Jessup and John Yeates Barlow; one local historian reports that 75–80 percent of the double-communities’ roughly 10,000 inhabitants are descended from one or both of these men


Thank you Penn..Mom for mentioning the possible retardation, and allowing me to bring this little issue up.

I’ll say this for the people in the cheap seats.....

The MEN in the JEFFS cult of the FLDS have already had at least 10 of their BROTHERS convicted of sex with a minor.
If you want to ignore their history and insist nothing is wrong, you need to wake up because...

THEY ARE RAPING LITTLE RETARDED GIRLS, and BREEDING NEW RETARDED GIRLS to take their place.
