Actually, I have nothing to say about the actions of the members of this group at all because all I've heard so far is demonizing propaganda from the government. I reserve judgment on them until the facts come out in court.
I am condemning the government because the rule of law has to mean something in this country or we are completely lost. From what I've read so far, the authorities jumped the gun a bit. I'm sure their search will turn up something to prosecure some folks there, because it's almost impossible to live one's daily life these days without breaking some law, but I'll be surprised if anyone is actually convicted on the charges being tossed around so freely here and in the media.
What about their leader being in prison for multiple charges?
Or is that too demonization and propaganda from the government?
(note to self-— buy more Alcoa stock).
Then you aren't paying attention. The leader is in jail on charges of rape and sexual abuse.
You need to read *Escape* by Carolyn Jessop. Unless you think she's a lying government sympathizer.
Plugging your ears and singing La, la, la, laaaa,... I can't hear you. I s no way to make intelligent decisions. All that does is lead to more of the same abuse.
I guess you wouldn't be happy unless they were all back in that compound being raped and beaten and swapped like trading cards.
It's too bad so many people like yourself have no compassion or sense of moral outrage. THAT'S what is allowing this stuff to continue; people tying the hands of the proper authorities to prosecute crimes.
So what's your solution to this problem? How would you handle it? What are you doing to protect little girls from being raped?
“...but I’ll be surprised if anyone is actually convicted on the charges being tossed around so freely here and in the media.”
You might want to check the status of their prophet, Mr. Jeffs.
They hung him high, as he well deserves. They made a huge strategic mistake thinking this stuff would be overlooked in Texas.
