Polygamy to remain illegal...for now


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Supreme Court refused to hear the Brown's challenge to Utah's polygamy law.
This means polygamy/"unlawful cohabitation" will remain a crime in Utah.

However since only about 10 people according to another article have been prosecuted under the law in the past decade and there are around 40,000 polygamists I don't see much enforcement.  This means that it will take new legislation to ever allow polygamy to be legal.

The reason the Supreme Court wouldn't hear the case is because the Sister Wives people weren't actually being prosecuted.  You can't bring a theoretical case to the Supreme Court.

I have to do everything myself don't I?

Okay, I need two women to marry me so we can get this train wreck of a case rolling. Any volunteers?

If you can wait a year, I would love to introduce you to my daughter if she ever considers marriage as a possibility in her life(it is so unstable now, I don't think she would want to do that to anyone until life is more predictable).  She is agnostic at this point though.  No reason to trust internal experiences when you know physical state can have all consuming influence.

Nah, I think it has more to do with the religious overtones.
This law will be changed as soon as some atheist liberal possibly homosexual groups from California start raising a big stink and filing anti-discrimination lawsuits.
Heaven forbid it be changed because it infringes on a religion.

I am a great catch. 40 years old, desperate, and live with my mother. Work night shift at Whataburger and my career is starting to take off. I am hoping for a promotion to assistant night manager in the next year.

Steve Young waited until he was 38, don't lose hope! Plus, he has 4 young children since then. It can happen Nehor!! :)

Oh, and description was definitely a joke. I got that assistant night manager job last week. ;)

I had a very funny reply (at least to me) but will refrain posting it as it may offend the sensibilities of some...

You got three rep points, does that mean you got three offers?

Do you want to come to the wedding? One husband and two wives. I am expecting we will be very happy but Cinepro insists on a prenup. Our lawyers are working it out now.
