Or she can just go back to her parents. Just like they do outside of the FLDS. I've never heard of pregnant teenagers not being able to return home with their parents, with their child. There's no big mystery.

I wonder about how you would react watching a 13 year old girl crying for her mother as she's raped by a man old enough to be her grandfather.

It would be great if you had this much compassion for ALL people that are being oppressed by their government and its laws, but I guess you feel that you can pick and choose. Not to belittle this issue, and I guess feeling for some people is better than not feeling for anyone.

They've pulled the records. Not really relevant in THIS case. What I wonder is if you have actually read about the actual goings on in THIS case, as I am, and find that all that horrible stuff doesn't seem to apply here. I'm trying to stay relevant to THIS case. Rape is a horrible crime. I don't care what the age is. So I really don't know why the age of the victim really matters.

Clarify? Who have I not shown compassion for? I'm not saying polygamy or rape should be made legal. But a person does have the right to live in a community of like minded people. And the only arrests so far has been of the kids.

If you could prove it, I would be horrified. But that doesnt seem to be the case here. How many 13 year old pregnate girls are varified in this case?

From what I understand, there are a number of pregnant girls that COULD be that young, but there is no way to tell because of all the missing birth certificates. Kind of convenient, if you ask me.
