“The only thing lacking is a little thing called evidence.”

Here’s the thing, polygamy is illegal, as it should be. The people of Colorado City (which I know were talking about Texas but their the same group) are polygamist and have been for decades. Everyone knows it and no one is doing a thing about it. The authorities in Texas said, “we’re not putting up with what Arizona has put up with.” I don’t really blame them. Utah wouldn’t, and didn’t put up with them either.

Because we’re all afraid action might somehow limit our freedom we allow them to have their own little nation with their own laws. I’m against government intrusion but it’s not like these people are Methodist and just have bad doctrine, they’re a wicked abusive cult. If the FLDS set up a compound in Oklahoma, I’d hope my state’s government would drive them clean out.

Here's another thing, it's called the constitution. If you throw it out for one, it's never long before we start tossing it aside for other reasons.

Exactly, and well said.

And what will you say when the evidence starts coming out?

(and yes I know that it is possible there is NO evidence. Not likely since I have read the appellate and TXSC transcripts, but anything is possible)

Why is polygamy illegal?
