Birth Defects Up in Polygamous Area

A rare, severe birth defect is on the rise in an inbred polygamous community on the Utah-Arizona border, according to a doctor who has treated many of the children.

Intermarriage among close relatives is producing children who have two copies of a recessive gene for a debilitating condition called fumarase deficiency. The enzyme irregularity causes severe mental retardation, epileptic seizures and other effects that often leaves children unable to take care of themselves.

It's not the 'marryin' part thats causing this, it's the f****** part.

They're just trying to remove themselves from the gene pool a bit more quickly.

Apparently the kids they're having now are too dumb to **** so natural selection has already solved the problem.

hawt = good
cousin = bad
13 = worse

OR

cousin = worse

I can't decide.

The enzyme irregularity causes severe mental retardation, epileptic seizures and other effects that often leaves children unable to take care of themselves and since many of the plural wives are on the dole, the government takes care of them.
