The law and your government calls it law enforcement. We the peons, oops I mean we the people call it infringing on our right to exist and enjoy life without govt intervention. I even forgot the word "freedom" some place in my rant.

So you want the freedom to marry several under aged girls, deny your children their rights, and kick out the young men to lessen the competition? Think about it.

I don't support THAT kind of freedom, because I don't support criminals, least of all child molesters.

I didnt say they didn't have rights and we need to make sure that all rights of the individuals are protected. But we havent had a trail to find out the reasons and actions in the court of law!!!

Here is my point if you want to trust what the government says that is fine. I'm not saying they are wrong but I reserve my judgements of what is going on until I hear a fair and balanced view point of this community. Are underage girls doing this and that and I want to hear testimony not CNN view of what the government told them.

He has been in prison since the trial in Utah in September 07 for two counts of being an accomplice to the rape of a 14 year old girl....

He is charged in Arizona with two counts of sexual conduct with a minor and two counts of incest... Totally different incidents.
