FLDS ask judge to halt land sale

FLDS' natural rights to manage private property within a trust and rights to free exercise of religion over a religiously established trust should win out under our constitutional guarantees. They will, however, have to fight in court(s) for these protections to be applied.
Somehow I think the claims that Utah just lets the polygamists get away with anything are absolutely false.
Looks like the descendants of polygamists are quite good at useing the same tactics that a government once used against them to dismantle a religious principle.
Economic sanctions worked quite well to persuade the LDS to change their ways. Looks like the fundamentalist bunch sticks to their guns.
Smith and Young had some guts and good ole Willie learned well.
I just wonder how long it will take before the FLDs will form a militia and defend their property.
I just think that they need to start the Temple now. Consecrate the ground and get the foundation started.
