Joseph Smith absolutely practiced polygamy. He had at least 8 wives.

Joseph Smith and Polygamy

Brigham Young had even more wives, I believe it was 27. I do remember that not all of them were very happy about it and one threw a sewing machine out of the window in protest.

Sounds like he didn't know how many wives he had.

She should have thrown it at him. I think it would have made her point have greater impact.
