'Sister Wives' family to challenge bigamy law - Entertainment - Reality TV - TODAY.com - 0 views

  •  
    The famous reality TV show 'Sister Wives' is using their show to not only educate America about their religious lifestyle, but to help fight to let it be legal once again. Polygamy was outlawed in the 1890s, but it is still practiced today by many Mormon families. The religious practice has to be carefully done in secret for the fear of being convicted. The author states that Mormons just want to freely practice their faith and be left alone about it without legal consequences.

    I watched the first season of Sister Wives on Netflix, and, without voicing my personal opinions on the subject, I was really surprised that people are still practicing polygamy.

    I understand that Arizona is just trying to stop immigration but some of the laws and rules taking place are making it seem like it is allowed to racial profile. Though that may not be the case. People are thinking that if you look Mexican then the police can pull you over but I reality there most likely not going to do that. If you get pulled over for speeding and then for some reason the cop thinks you could be illegal then he can ask for paper work. I get that the law seems racial, but Arizonans should not care so much if your a citizen and have nothing to hide.

    Arizona immigration laws have consistently supported racial profiling and make it difficult for legal Latinos to avoid being harassed, interrogated and detained unlawfully. State laws should be fair and adhere with constitutional freedoms afforded all citizens. If you're an American citizen, you're afforded the same rights as other citizens and should not be detained unlawfully because you "look like an immigrant". This is where Arizona crosses the line with it's immigration laws.

    I understand how these immigration laws here in Arizona can make people feel, however i feel like if i have nothing to hide whats the problem. I still don't like the fact that it makes it so easy for police to racial profile because its almost insulting to get pulled over for no reason except skin color. I have seen cops pull people over just for skin color, especially in the northern part of Arizona and its wrong.

Gay Marriage, Polygamy, Contracts, Personal Freedom - 0 views

  •  
    In this article, Lorna Jaynes expresses her thoughts on gay marriage and polygomy. She thinks that gay marrige should be allowed and that people who are also in favore of making it legal and for those who arn't should keep an open mind to other relationship views like polygomy. The reality show Sister Wives is used as a example in that they are being sued because Kody Brown is "married" to four woman. Their argument is that they are not causing and physical problems for anyone and they are not harming their children in any way so the government should stay out of their presonal lives.

    This article is about gay marriage, polygamy, and contracts. If gay couples who are "married" or in a domestic partnership do not get the same benefits as a regular married couple. The author of this article is pressing for gays to have the same rights as everyone else. Moreover, the latest in polygamy in Utah is felt by many to be too much in to another person's business. It is that the state if Utah is 'persecuting citizens for living their religious values.
