They are born into the polygamist cult and raised in it. 2/3 of the boys are kicked out as teens and end up living on the streets in our cities (they have to kick out 2/3 cause men are supposed to have 3 wives to become "kings in heaven"). The girls are forced into arranged marriages at 14 or 15. They don't have to point a gun at 14 year olds with little education or knowledge of the outside world. By the time they're adults, they've got two or more kids and no way to support themselves but welfare. The 16 yo girl who called in an abuse claim had already borne a child at 15 to a 50 yo daddy.

The polygamist community's support themselves on welfare. And the cult grows not from conversion of willing adults but because each girl/woman ends up having loads of kids during her life all raised on welfare.

If we let a cult that calls itself Christian do this, we're gonna have increasing numbers of Muslims doing it in the future too.

I'm not sympathetic to 'em at all. They should go in and aggressively prosecute these folks for welfare fraud plus any abuse they can prove.
