48. The aggressive behavior of the FLDS apologists here
(and on other forums I visit) has me GRAVELY concerned about this nation's future. I believe FLDS to be potentially extremely violent toward those who disagree with them. Remember, these folks are the direct philosophical descendents of the early Mormons who practiced "blood atonement" with vigor. Jon Krakauer covered one such murder in Under the Banner of Heaven.
They also are the embodiment of Dominionism and fully support theocracy - they isolate themselves to have their theocratic fiefdoms when they can't actually take over the local government like they did in Short Creek.
