UPDATE: Since I was called out on my horrible late night spelling and grammar, apporpriate changes have been made.
Have you been watching the news the past week or so? Have you seen the freak show that is happening down in Texas? All’s I have to say is “IT’S ABOUT DAMN TIME!”
This polygamists group (FLDS: Fundamental church of Latter Day Saints) has been around for a long damn time. Mostly residing on the Utah /Arizona border. A highway runs through these towns. Hilldale, UT is on one side the street and Colorado City, Az is on the other side of the street and it is the freakiest place I have ever been to. Yes these woman dress in the traditional pioneer style homemade dresses. Yes, many of them, especially the younger girls, wear pants under their dresses. Yes they all do their hair in that jacked up front upswept braid thingy. Yes, they all seem like brainwashed robots.
When we lived in Page, AZ, about an hour from this place, we took trips to St. George, UT or Las Vegas and had to drive through it. You could see extremely large compounds or what I loving refer to as “Polygaplexes” on either side of the highway, but they also had convenience stores. Often we would stop for gas or snacks. It was creepy and eerie. Blain would always fuck with them, which would send me fleeing to the car in case the men folk showed up on the scene with shot guns. I get the feeling I have blogged about this before, but what the hell, it is worth repeating, especially since it is in the news so much right now. Get over it.
This particular group starting forcing people to move down to this Texas compound right around four years ago, right after their Prophet was captured and put in jail for facilitating the rape of a 14 year old that was forced to marry and have sex with her pervy old cousin. By the way, these jackasses are inbred like no other. Texas was like “Oh hell no!” Here comes a group of loony-toon polyg’s with all kinds of money who bought up this giant piece of land and they are building these large buildings and a temple. So they have been eyeballing them since they showed up. Luckily, they got a chance when they got that phone call from some chick tipping them off to so really fucked up doings. Now whether or not it was a fake phone call or not should not even matter. Once they got in there, they found at least 20 under age girls that are preggers. None of the kids know who their parents are or at least won’t admit it. And to top it off, most don’t know their birthdates or exactly how old they are. In my book that is just flat wrong. Not to mention the fact that most of the girls are being forced to have sex with dirty old men that are more than likely their relatives. EWWWW!
This is the worst form of female abuse (verbal, physical and sexual) that occurs in the US. These poor girls are brainwashed from birth and have no access to the outside world. The men do not allow TV, radio or any other kind of media. They are barely educated and as soon as they start menstruating they are married and pregs in no time. They are also required to have one baby per year. They are the property of their husbands and if the husband makes any waves with the powers that be, his wife and kids are reassigned to others, the girls have no say in the matter.
Don’t be fooled either by the claims that they are not part of the Mormon or LDS church. They used to practice this as well and they only reason they don’t now is because miraculously the Prophet at the time had a convenient revelation that it should be abolished when the US would only let them into the union if they stopped practicing it. They always forget to mention that they still preach that you will have multiple wives when you go to heaven. Hippocrates!!!!! Don’t even let ‘em fool ya.
My opinion is that if you want multiple wives (but, really who needs that, isn’t one bad enough) and every one is adult and consenting and that is your religious belief than by all means, go for it! Make it legal so this shit would be so secretive and underground and these girls would stop being forced and brainwashed into this bullshit!
And by the way, have you ever been curious as to how they get all their money, because they are filthy rich? It’s a community effort. The ones that work pool their income, kinda in a communistic fashion. They use their credit rating to buy all kinds of shit then never pay for it, then move on to the next good credit rating. They breed like rabbits so there is always plenty to choose from. And don’t forget the welfare fraud and all the money they trick the government into giving them.
It’s sickening that Utah, Arizona, Idaho and Colorado, which all have large polygamist groups thriving in them, have never had the balls like Texas has!

You have valid points (generally speaking) - but people who blog like this could really be taken more seriously if they learned to spell properly and use correct diction and syntax. The more blogs I read on the internet (especially the ones on theshapeofamother.com) the more shocked I am by the number of adults who do not know how to write correctly; using proper english. Go read some entries on that site and you will see what I mean.

another point I am curious about is if they have some tax exemption … the entire thing stinks … to high heaven …
and every time one of the mothers would say … ‘we haven’t done anything wrong” … excuse me? But I also think it is amazing how they stick all the grieving women (rightfully so) in front of the camera but where are the males of that “ranch” there to speak up or being interviewed.

What does Hippocrates have to do with this?
Do you mean hypocrites?:
Your spelling still sucks.
