Bountiful polygamous leaders charged
 

Charges have been laid against two men who lead a religious sect in the southeastern B.C. town of Bountiful. Winston Blackmore and James Oler are both charged with practising polygamy. Attorney General Wally Oppal says Blackmore is accused of committing polygamy with 20 women while Oler is accused of commiting the crime with two women.
Members of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints practice multiple marriage in Bountiful, the southeastern B.C. community with a population of around 1,000. The sect in Bountiful is a breakaway offshoot of the Mormon church, which renounced polygamy more than a century ago.

Last June, Oppal appointed a special prosecutor to look into allegations of criminal abuse at Bountiful, despite two earlier legal opinions that said it would be difficult to proceed with criminal charges for polygamy itself. Blackmore, who is the sect leader, openly admits to having numerous wives and dozens of children but has said the community abhors sexual abuse of children.

I laugh from a very healthy place in my heart, when i see white people back in the colonial days.

Those people know nothing about nothing. They were interviewed, and all they could say with a stupid ass expression on their face is "WE WANT OUR KIDS"

HAHAHAHA

I don't get why it's legal to cheat on your wife left, right and centre, but not OK to be a polygamist.

I mean, for someone as charming, intelligent and good-looking as me, it's torture being forced to be monogamous.

id rather have 1 hot chick than 20 of these

did they get warren jeffs yet.....hes my hero

yeah, but most RS members will have to settle for one fugly one :D

lol those girls look pretty inbred.

Warren Jeffs was caught a long time ago.

Actually you make a good point.

What IS the difference?

^ the difference, which is why he is being prosecuted is because he's marying out 14 year olds etc.

if everyone on the farm was legal age I doubt it would be as much as a issue

double post

read the article...they're charged with practicing poligamy...nothing about sexual assault or anything about children :p

With any luck, that kinda polygamy is going to make them so retarded they won't be able to defend themselves

yea since nothing like that ever happens at poligimist ranches right? :rolleyes:

There is no way anyone here will convince me that the second and third chicks in that photo (from left to right) aren't daughter and mother.

Polygamy would probably be legal if it wasn't for the fact that pretty much every group of polygamists almost always includes marrying 14 year olds, mental and physical abuse, confinement, inbreeding, abandonment of male children, etc, etc.

It's almost like practicing something that requires 5-10 times more women then men has some inherent down side :haha:

^ lmfao. watching this shit on the news right now. y the fuck r they dressed like they're living in the 1800's ......

lol i want to visit that community

where is this place?
I couldn't find it on the road map of BC...lol

It's about time something was done! I wonder why they didn't charge them for sexual abuse of minors? Their situation is no different than the teacher in the hot teacher thread.
