I don't see this as an either/or type situation. Do I think some real skanky things have gone on with the FLDS, yes I do. Do I tend to come down conservative when it comes to civil liberties, yea. I would have no problem with rounding up all types of people I consider perverts and put them through thought reprogramming training. However, some things I have seen over the last few years have given me pause. I have seen people in the justice system here in Utah way over step what I consider to be reasonable. I now understand even in good ole Utah, I am not as conservative as some who get in power and I am not so sure they wouldn't take away my rights if they got the chance. If it is an either or choice, I come down on the side of the gov't on this one, but I am not comfortable with it and think it could be handled a lot better so the innocent ones aren't being punished along with the guilty. |

Folks, this is an example of a zinger.
Well done.
