Polygamist Compound - Over 400 Children taken

All over the tv the past week all I hear is about the polygamist compound. I don’t know too much about it, but from what I do I have seen on TV. Apparently at least 400 children were taken away from a Texas Compound, after a girl had phoned the police that she had been abused and admitted that children as young as 14 were and are forced into marriage with older men and become pregnant.

I was watching it last night and they were talking with some women who refused to tell the interviewers their last name. Another question asked to the some of the women were, “how old were you when you got married?” The women refused to answer. And they claimed that no children are abused there. When I heard that children were being forced to marry I was disgusted and then when I heard that it was hundreds of children allegedly being abused I was sick to my stomach. On Nancy Grace, streaming across the bottom was something like “one man had up to 22 wives.” Who needs 22 wives? Who needs two wives?

The site I saw was something similar to the television show Little House on the Prairie. All the women wore long dresses down to their ankles and had long braided hair. They new nothing outside of the “camp.” From what it sounded like they were oblivious to anything happening in the “real” world. The world to them was the compound.

I hope that whoever did this and is responsible for this disgusting act gets arrested and the women are all taken into good care because no ONE deserves to be “trapped” and forced into anything they don’t want to do. Especially being practically locked up in a compound when one has the entire world at their fingertips.
