I don't really expect massive suicide, but I do expect massive unhappiness and
troubles adjusting (if that ever happens).  The fault for this will no doubt be all
laid at the feet of the FLDS themselves, not the CPS that abducted them from their
homes and dumped them into Modern America.

As witness I call the efforts in the US to forcibly mainstream Native American
children and the similar efforts in Australia to mainstream the Aboriginal
children... by ripping them from their homes and raising them elsewhere.
