Successful Swinger Persecuted By The Man



ABC News reports on the story of Malachi York, the leader of the Nuwaubian cult, accused of sexually abusing his female followers and "grooming" young girls for sex.

An unnamed witness, now 28, alleges York methodically broke down girls' inhibitions as he prepared them for sex with him.

The former Nuwaubian cult member said York would first give the girls special privileges, such as soda, pizza and TV. Then the girls would be moved on to pornographic movies and sex toys in preparation for sex with York, she charged.

The alleged victim, who was then just 13 years old, left the Nuwaubian compound in Georgia in 2000 and later helped her sister escape.

The witness said the girls were told it was traditional for members of the group to have sex with the leader of the group so they could learn about intercourse and later please their husbands.

I'm sorry to sound like a cynic. I mean, there's nothing about the exploitation of children that I condone. But seriously, "breaking down girls' inhibitions", pizza, soda, tv, etc., this just sounds like dating. Cheap dating, mind you, but dating just the same. I mean, when I was single I was always using those corny lines like "you'll be learning about intercourse" and "you'll be able to please your husband someday". It didn't work nearly as well for me as it apparently did for Mr. York, but perhaps he has other attributes. For one thing, he did shell out for pizza. (A CNN report claimed that York plied the girls with "gold bracelets, diamonds, candy and trips to restaurants outside his neo-Egyptian compound", which, when you really think about it is not so different than what Donald Trump does).

Nearby residents say they were frightened when the Nuwaubians declared themselves a sovereign nation and gave machine guns to the guards who patrolled their gates.

York told his followers that they would be better off when they were completely separated from the rest of the world. "I'm talking about a real nation. Our own nation right here … with our own passports and our own tax system," York told followers during a taped speech in 1999.

The local sheriff in Putnam County, Ga., said he understood the fears of the local residents.

Sheriff Howard Sills compared the cult to the branch Davidians of Waco, Texas, and the Heaven's Gate cult of California.

Every incident involving every one of these groups ended in some sort of tragedy, did it not? So am I concerned as a sheriff? You're damned right I'm concerned," Sills said.

For years, the group claimed to be waiting for a spaceship to come and deliver them from the Georgia corn fields.

They now claim to be Native Americans, and York calls himself "Chief Black Thunderbird Eagle."

York has tried to argue he has American Indian heritage and should not be judged by the U.S. judicial system.

Hey, go ahead and laugh. Ministries that speak of "heaven" and "hell" are given tax-exempt status, but something as perfectly logical as a big spaceship taking York and clan away for an intergalactic pizza party/orgy is dismissed by some cracker policeman.
