Another thing I read was that women have lost the “Momma Bear” instinct...

I think it is more like they dont have it for the children they are raising

Children are shuffled around the adult women until they dont know who their own mo0ther are

and their mothers dont have a bond with their own off spring...

When the children were resecued many of the 400 were not with their natural mothers

nor could they ID their own...

Pics of women holding hands with little girls were not the “Mom/daughter” relationships that the image appeared to portray

They were really pics of women with unrelated children...

Merely disinterested unpaid babysitters...

Maybe so, but in his dictations when ever he refers to a ‘wife’ who displeases him he mentions giving them a “correction.” I image if it's ever revealed what that really is we'd all get sick.

One of the mind tricks he played with the women of YFZ was to make them keep a suitcase packed. Whenever he got some transmission from one of his gods - or probably a tip from a spy, he sent them to one of the other ‘R's’ (Refuge) or parked them in a House of Hiding.

BTW: The R system is how many hours drive the compound is from Short Creek.

For example, Eldorado is a 17 hour drive from Short Creek. R-23 is 23 hours and so forth.

You're right.

Carolyn Jessop went into that. All children belong to the priesthood - essentially the prophet, not the mother.

The brain washing is so intense that when she left her oldest daughter ran to the wife that was the ‘enforcer’ and told her Carolyn was stealing the prophets children.

Go figure.

Apparently, Colorado City is finally getting some much-needed law enforcement attention:

Right, Miz. But the problem is as soon as he goes away (if the jury decides he does) another man will step up and take his place.

When I see the apologists talk about ‘wholesome’ and family and bread baking - I know exactly where they are going.

They're going to say Jeffs was a bad man, but basically the FLDS is OK. They are good parents (except the water boarding) and the girls have free agency, there is no force (except being brain washed that you are going to the hell of all hells.) etc. Bank on it.

Who’d expect their holy prophet to come into town looking like this?

Nana, a lot of trucks pass through Short Creek running the AZ and UT scales. Because of the grades over Jacob Lake - I imagine a lot of them are running Jake brakes.

yuk! So Warren could ride around on a Harley while the others worked & did without. The flds should view pics of his “sins’ & realize they've been scammed. However they refuse to believe anything bad about their way of life. The more I read about the flds, Jeffs etc & I've been reading for years the more disgusted I become. I think the flds bank should be broken, the welfare the women got be paid back & the men & boys he tossed out given some money. Maybe the only way to break these cults is to take their money. It doesn't belong to Jeffs. The whole thing just baffles me & Warren on a HD is laughable. I am shocked he could hold a bike up. He always seems so pansy like to me. I hope they nail his butt in jail.

I dont think the fLDS are allowed to have computers or look at the Internet

No TV radios etc

Even the mainstream Mormons are told which websites they can look at

in the dorms and apartments at BYU there are certain websites that are blocked

and they are not naughty ones...

Meanwhile just like Joseph Smith did each time he was arrested, Jeffs still controls and runs his harem from jail...

It's Naomie - she who alone holds the “gifts of Naomie.”

I call her the wily coyote.

Thanks.

I used to think the wives were not allowed to do much but then I saw a show where they seemed to be more informed or maybe told what to say. I think they know more then they let on. I am not buying the innocent brainwashing stuff 100% anymore. I just think cult. And I want the mothers who toss their sons out on the streets & hand their little girls to pervs on trial too. Of course what I want doesn't matter. This thing is a huge mess & Jeffs need to hang. Maybe he will in jail. You never know.

They look alike, almost like siblings in this picture.

Is she his favorite wife or the one who trains the little girls? I don’t see any long skirt. She must have had some power to get her own bike & lose the dress.
