"Baillie told Crown prosecutor Jenny Rees labelling all kiddie porn collectors as pedophiles would be akin to saying anyone with illicit drugs is an abuser."
Comparing drugs to child porn? You're either USING it or DEALING it, either way.

Time to end abuse, welfare fraud in polygamist clans Posted: 2 years ago by DerAlt
Polygamist families are taught that welfare was instituted by God to assist them. Thus, wives who are not technically married as the first wife file for welfare by stating that their husband has left them and refuses to pay child support. In effect, polygamy is cheating the honest citizens of this state out of millions of tax dollars.
This is Utah but is typical of polygamist wefare abuse in other states as well.

Look from inside Texas polygamist ranch Posted: 2 years ago by deEPCHill
The children's shoes still sit neatly, side by side where they last left them. Child-sized shovels and miniature wheelbarrows sit on the porch of their three-story, log cabin-like home.
The only noise now emanating from this 1,700-acre compound is the rustle of the wind, birds chirping, the occasional scurry of a roadrunner or a truck traveling along the dirt roads.
