“They provided false information, removed ID bracelets, rubbed the writing off them and switched children and in some reports even clothing in order to confuse the identities of children as well as their parentage or family group affiliation.”
WEll, I think that indicates they were all TAUGHT FROM BIRTH that they were GOD’S CHOSEN PEOPLE and would be subjected to the EVIL’s OUTSIDE the compound and must resist to protect the LOYAL INNER CIRCLE, and their families.
They were just protecting their faith, their beliefs, their way of ‘living’.
That said.... To what extremes were they willing to go to to protect those things?
Would they keep quiet, even if they knew there was abuse, sex with minors, scams off welfare, child labor????
Would they bury the evidence, if it came down to being caught?
“””...if I am pulled over for a traffic violation...””
Not an *alleged* traffic violation?
You surely do take great pride in being a scofflaw...how comforting.
God forbid you are ever abducted by a sex rapist/murderer and there’s no-one to help you.
“Even today if I am pulled over for a traffic violation and the officer asks me if I know why I was pulled over, I tell him that since he doesn’t know then maybe he should go back to his car. Of course I say it with a smile and it never works, but I have a 100% record in court. “
When I get pulled over, I tell the Officer the truth. I make no excuses, but just tell him the truth.
So far, it has worked 99% of the time. The only time I got a ticket (in the past 10 years) was because it was RADAR, in a SCHOOL ZONE, and I didn’t have my LICENSE on me at the time, and there was an open beer in the vehicle from the night before (I worked at a bar back then).
He gave me a ticket, and apologized for having to do so, and told me If I had to ‘hurry’, take a different route so I don’t go through the School Zone.
Based, at least, on our comparison of experiences.
Well what do we have here? A cult of ONE! What would you recommend?

New York Man Used Voodoo Threats to Scare Teen Girls Into Rape ‘Rituals’
Thursday, May 01, 2008
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. A 51-year-old man who claimed to practice Voodoo has admitted telling underage girls that if they refused to have sex with him terrible things would happen to them and their families.
DiFiore said that at various times in 2006, Aviles told three girls, ages 16 and 14, that he could help them with such problems as boys and parents if they engaged in a sexual “ritual” with him. He warned that if they backed out, he would make bad things happen to them and their relatives.
What kind of "parents" are these, period?

When I was in High School I was filming a physics experiment and I happened to film two cop cars (complete with great face shots) running a stop sign. The same stop sign that the cops loved to use to write tickets to the students. So a group of us took the film to the local JP. To make a long story short I was the only member of the group that still had a drivers license a year later.
God forbid you are ever abducted by a sex rapist/murderer and theres no-one to help you.
What is the saying, when seconds count the police are only minutes away. Police aren't even required to protect you. When was the last time you heard of the police preventing a rape or murder.
By the way, I haven't had a ticket in 20 years and I seriously doubt that any of the local cops would give me a ticket, unless I asked them to. I used to be an EMT, do Search and Rescue with them, etc, etc.
“When was the last time you heard of the police preventing a rape or murder.”
The last time, was when the LE and CPS raided the YFZ Ranch.
At least the most public, if not the most recent.
So, what you are saying is that you get away with violating the law (traffic violations, to be specific), because you have ‘friends’ in the Local PD?
I guess the FLDS can be considered "liberal" mormons for not forcing their children to use the "Deseret Alphabet". Imagine how much MORE isolated they would be if they could couldn't read or write english...Just as Brigham young intended.
Wow - you are pompous too!
I think that’s one of the most horrifying scenes on film. I get your comparison.
What good is the good old boy network if it doesn't protect the good old boys? LOL Trust me I know what I am talking about when it comes to the abuse of power by those in charge. I have seen it first hand.
The reality is that aside from very minor speeding violations (I sold my Porsche) I don't break many laws.
I don’t doubt that. It’s just that I wonder if that’s enough experience for him to be competent if he’s the sole medical provider for that group. Would that qualify him to handle the wide range of medical problems he could encounter?
Just the old FAMILY tree....(snort!)
And now they're trying to prevent rape, murder and abuse and you're condemning them.
Damned if they do and damned if they don't.
The last time, was when the LE and CPS raided the YFZ Ranch.
Two things come to mind. One, do you equate the CPS with the police and two, why did the police wait so long? Why didn't they do it years ago? And who did the police arrest for rape and murder?
From the way you're bragging, I don't doubt it.
“Trust me I know what I am talking about when it comes to the abuse of power by those in charge. I have seen it first hand.”
So, do you always assume that, in any ‘action’ by authorities, that it is always done because of an abuse of power?
Yeah, but not too sure about the “trust” part. ;)
