Libertarians Smell Religious Persecution in Unconstitutional Texas FLDS Raid



Did Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff's office first call Texas? Or did Texas first call his office? Who initiated the religious persecution?

Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff testified in Texas legislative committee hearings in support of the proposed changes, which were intended to help Texas authorities address new found problems stemming from the FLDS compound and its inhabitants' way of life.

"Our marriage laws needed to be updated anyway," hilderbran said. "Moving from 14 to 16 was a no-brainer for parental consent. It would have the least amount of push-back."

Hilderbran said Texas had enough authority under the criminal laws already on the books for statutory rape and sexual assault of minors to justify its raid and believes those provisions "really boxes them in."


To read entire news article go to Deseret News Archives: This won't be "another Short Creek."

At Short Creek, captured children were allowed to return to their parents. This time, it was planned religious persecution from the start with no intent to ever allow the 460 or so children return to their parents whether or not their parents are guilty of any wrongdoing.

For Mark Shurtleff and his Texas partners it's about state socialism, the insane belief that government officials and bureaucrats know better than everybody else how people should lead their lives ... it's about justifying the use of state force against those who would be free to live as their conscience dictates.

The FLDS children were never in any danger of harm. Texas officials argued essentially "these children might possibly be brought up with values different than ours." For Shurtleff and his Texas pals it's about State worship and State power, and the infallibility of the State. It's socialism at it's damnedest. Yet it's the children who are being damned.

The question libertarians want asked and answered is: who initiated the contact between Texas and Mark Shurtleff's office? We know Mark Shurtleff testified in Texas hearings. Who called who?

Freedom lovers everywhere would do well to boycott Texas. Don't buy Texas products. Don't use Texas services. Don't vacation in Texas. Don't support Texas in any way ... until the children are freed.

Write to Texas officials of all levels and tell them specifically what you plan to do to "remove your support" of Texas until the children are free to live with their natural families. If you are from Utah, or have Utah family, write to Attorney General Mark Shurtleff and express your desire to see him explain himself or be voted out of office.

"Free the Innocent FLDS" Petition

Target:Texas CPS, Governor, and Judges
Sponsored by: Connor Boyack


We, the undersigned, urge Texan authorities to free the innocent women, children, and other members of the Fundamentalist LDS Church who are currently being detained. We demand that the Constitutional rights of the innocent be preserved, and that due process be served. As individuals are innocent until proven guilty, we call upon the Texas Governor to intervene in this matter and allow the women and children to return to their homes peacefully. We also demand an apology, most especially from the Texas CPS, for the heinous acts of aggression displayed in these recent events.

What About The Abusive Texas Foster Care System?

The State of Texas believes these 416 children, about 100 under the age of 4 years old, would be better off in the Texas Foster Care System, rather than in their own homes. Here is a shocking video that describes the horrors of the abusive Texas Foster Care System:

“I did not understand what made me free, nor what my freedom is, nor where to look to find it. Father, I have searched in vain until I heard Your Voice directing me. Now I would guide myself no more. For I have neither made nor understood the way to find my freedom. But I trust in You. You Who endowed me with my freedom as Your holy Son will not be lost to me. Your Voice directs me." (Prayer from A Course in Miracles)

Libertarian Mantra Exposes Obama Cruelty

President Obama has no choice but to offer you up as a sacrifice to his god.  His worship of the illusion that there can be a "common good" for society which transcends the good of individuals in the society demands your sacrifice. Yet libertarians fiddle. Are you amazed that libertarians blab about marijuana while the economy of the entire world is crashing?  Are you astounded that libertarians nit-pick about bedroom issues while the entire populace is being reduced to slavery?   Many libertarians spend their time forever addressing puny little issues which (a) make them look to the public like petty teenagers, and (b) serve only to side-track the public’s thought from an infinitely more important underlying truth. Okay, let's suppose you want to do some real good for the libertarian cause.  How about addressing  the one and only truly meaningful issue?  Maybe a little story would illustrate what libertarians should be talking about. One upon a time there was a

Ayn Rand and Jesus Christ: Deep Similarities

Ayn Rand's intellectual genius was great, but far greater still was her willingness to tune in to her spirit, feel her spirit, live by her spirit, and write from her spirit. Her spirit has moved millions. "When I studied Atlas Shrugged I was inspired to change the direction of my life totally. I literally owe my life to Ayn Rand." How many times have we heard a statement such as this? The quality in a fictional work which can change someone's life so dramatically is not the intellectualism of the work, but the spiritual foundation on which the intellectualism is built. Intellectualism without a spiritual base is a painful torture which ultimately leads to terror and death, as Ayn Rand so perfectly illustrated with her fictional characters. But intellectualism which arises out of being in touch with one's spirit is a very different story, as those of us know who have read Atlas Shrugged . Ayn Rand's heroes are fond of saying their antagonists are "mindles

Libertarianism Coming On Strong?

"Americans are increasingly opposed to activist government programs. The most significant social movement of 2009, the Tea Party protests, grew out of that opposition. Libertarian heroine Ayn Rand is as popular today as ever. Rand's brilliant and radical laissez faire novel "Atlas Shrugged," sold roughly 300,000 copies last year, according to BookScan, twice its sales in 2008 and roughly triple annual sales in recent decades." - Conservative Libertarianism's Comeback by David Paul Kuhn The above article would have us believe that a growing resurgence in libertarian sentiment is a "backlash" reaction to the Democratic Party's move into full-fledged fascism. Certainly there is some truth to this, but it cannot be the whole story. Franklin Roosevelt's fascism was far more inclusive. FDR's brain trust had almost to a man visited Joseph Stalin in the Soviet Union and liked what they saw . In the Roosevelt Administration there was a
