This case, just like any other case that showcases the glaring disrespect for the welfare of children (and women) in favour of criminal “rights” (think Megan’s Law), the sleeping minds of America often finally wake up loudly to get laws changed. Necessity and blatant immorality should be the impetitus for change.
One such change should start with the veil of religious freedom that enables (and protects) Cults such as FLDS and their “Prophets” from the laws that we as American citizens must abide by. America is not Saudi Arabia and as such we, as American citizens, do not live under the Sharia ideology shared by Jeffs and the Muslims Mullahs, nor should we make exceptions based on bogus religion – made by men – for the benefit of men. Equality in America must always begin with gender equality. When it comes to marriage and sex neither women nor men should be at the mercy of another sex. Nothing less should be the prevailing ideology of the land of the free and home of the brave. Freedom starts there. Control over our OWN bodies(person)first, then, branches out from there.
Considering the enormous basket of alleged crimes against children that are perpetrated within the breeding grounds of ALL FLDS cults in ANY state, not only would local laws (that allow such practices to be overlooked) but Federal laws need revamping as well.
