Citizens under the age of 18 (minors) have been returned to the Warren Jeffs compound though it is common knowledge children are being neglected, abused and raped. With the removal of the children it keeps them safe.  A small portion of the

Texas CPS Basic Values are as follows

A state attorney even said "This is not a case against the church. It is about child sex abuse — a pattern of sexual assault."

 The removal of these children will not only benefit the children by protecting them. It will decrease the amount of tax free public assistance that Warren Jeffs receives from the "unemployed" mothers of dozens of children. As long as these children are there they will be raped and abused. And tax payers pay for this. Remove these children from the dangers they are subjected to on a daily basis. As a people we want less crime against one another, however we know that many adult abusers state they were abused as children. Yet we will return 416 children to a sect of people that believe child abuse is okay while others video tape and stand around watching. If this were happening in any other home you would remove these children but we returned these children to a life of systematic abuse,  This must be stopped.  It must be stopped by removing these children at once. Freedom of religion is resepected but you can not break the law of the land in the name of religion. Help these children to live normal, healthy lives.  Remove them from danger.
