Polygamy Thrives in Utah
2014-02-11
[An Nahar] With 17 of their 25 children still living at home, breakfast is a military operation for the Dargers.
Nobody cares anymore.
As organized chaos unfolds at the family home in the Utah countryside outside Salt Lake City, the parents come to help out.

Alina is the first, followed by her "sister wives" Vicki and Valerie, and finally their husband Joe.

#8  There's a reason the mortality rates reflect an earlier morbidity for the poor sapes male.

#7  The question is: can the guy afford to feed all those kids or does the state (taxpayers) have to help?

#6  More media feed about the unconventional.
File it under, "When old laws don't apply" and a silly prejudice.

Look for greater exposure as poor disparaged Mormon Mitt gets closer to 2016.

#5  In the other 'civilized' states they do it with a series of marriages rather than one in parallel. Or as in major urban areas, don't even bother with the marriage ritual since the breadwinner is the government (ultimately the taxpayer).

#1  It may officially be illegal + a felony, but the local Govt isn't cracking down hard on it either -a point which I'm sure pro-Sharia attorneys + activist coalitions WON'T miss in court.

Cold War "Creeping Communism" is now post-Cold War/9-11 "Creeping Sharia"??? Utah may be only one US State among Obama's 57, but thats enough for many hardline Muslims to claim the entire country for Islam ergo the US M-U-S-T self-impose Islamic Rule.

ITS NOT SHARIA OR ISLAMIC RULE - ITS "DIVERSITY" + "PLURALISM" + "SPECIAL COURTS".

DON'T FEAR THE JIHADI - FEAR HIS LAWYER(S) + THE ACLU.
