Most polygamy in the United States is done within the borders of Utah and Arizona. Many FLDS members live in the twin communities of Hildale, Utah, and Colorado City, Arizona. There are several religious groups in the United States that actively promote the practice of polygamy, or plural marriage. Most (but not all) claim some historical connection to early Mormonism, and frequently call themselves "Mormon Fundamentalists" or "Fundamentalist Mormons," a term that members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (mainstream Mormons), who do not practice polygamy, often object to. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints renounced polygamy in 1890 as part of the events enabling Utah to become a state of the United States. Today, the church will excommunicate any member found to be practicing polygamy, even in countries where polygamy is legal, thus, FLDS members are not members of the official Mormon church.

what is the law on body armor for civilians in Utah

In most states the sale of body armor is limited to law enforcement only. In many states it is illegal/A felony to posses body armor. It's best to check your local laws regarding the issue. you can check your states statutes by going to your states website and searching for statutes .

This statement is ridiculous.

If you are going to make a claim, provide a verifiable source.

I have found a number of companies in the USA that are willing to supply body armor to civilians. I'm sure they would be closed down if it was illegal. I classify this as a secondary source as the Government is the primary source.

This is correct. New York has a pending bill to make ownership of body armor illegal for felons. In California, a felon convicted of manslaughter was, after release, later apprehended wearing body armor. California 2nd Court found the definition of body armor "too vague", and released him despite his conviction by a jury. As stated above, bulletproofme.com will ship to any state except Connecticut, where body armor is only legal for military and law enforcement personnel. The only correct part of the original answer is that you should check local law. Otherwise, the second person to post is correct. It's a ridiculous statement.

If you're wondering how they traveled West, then the answer is handcarts and covered wagons!

In 1844 following the assignation of the Latter Day Saint prophet over 11,000 Mormons made the trek to the unincorporated land we know as Utah today to avoid persecution in Illinois. The Mormons named the land Deseret and were annexed into the Union from Mexico as the Utah Territory in 1850 as a result of the Mexican-American War. Utah was not granted statehood until 1896 as a result of the LDS practice of polygamy (having multiple wives) the U.S. government would not admit Utah until the practice was stopped.

People flocked to California because they were seeking gold and riches, and gold had been discovered there.

The Mormons changed the landscape of the west by moving there and establishing cities and towns in areas that were previously uninhabited.

The Mormons were settled in Nauvoo, Illinois on the banks of the Mississippi river. They were then forced to leave in 1846, essentially the then United States and travel to what is now Utah. Brigham Young, the prophet at the time, led them there, as he saw in a vision the place where they were to go and flourish, as they did in Utah. They reached the Salt Lake valley in 1847.
