Well I wouldn't go and compare polygamists to the groups Hack mentioned. While there is of course violence and abuse among almost any religious group, by and far those 3 groups do not have much of a problem.
All 3 groups have various different kinds of issues, but for the most part members are stable, hardworking citizens of our country.
