> And not to throw the mothers under the bus, this is also about slavery. I have no problem with consenting adults, male and female doing whatever they want. If these compounds were open and people could leave and join at will, OK, weird, but not my business. But then you have children being born into this. The issue is that for these to be what they are and work, total control by a smaller group over the majority must exist. Which is what makes it slavery and evil.

Totally agree. Let us hope and pray that the law allows the proper prosecution of the responsible individuals -- any and all who enforced or willingly cooperated -- and wipe this scourge out. Then go after the others like it.

BTW, since this case really has nothing to do with the legit Mormon religion, I want to be very clear that I have no quarrel with them or any other legal religion, and in fact will defend their right to whatever beliefs and legal practices they engage in, no matter how weird I personally think they are. This is not a religious persecution. It is the legal shutting down of a child rape prison.

Sincerely,
It’s more than child rape. I posted the other day that if you know anything about BDSM behaviors, this is very much like a DOM with a mass of unwilling (unknowing) Subs. Every aspect of the women’s lives are controlled-— their hair, underwear, garments, how they comport themselves. How they address their ‘masters’, how they have no freedoms and how everything they do is by the will of their ‘owners’.

Just sub prairie dresses and Elvis hair with leather and dog collars and you have the same mindset....except they picked one that looks sweet and tame over scary. And a lot of the men’s sexual satisfaction comes from this control, as much as from the sex act itself.

Add handing over girls when they reach fertility and you’ve added a twerk that even the most twisted of the BDSM’ers would never sanction.
