Good fences make good neighbors, right?
When the Brown family, the polygamists stars of the TLC show Sister Wives, moved from Utah to Las Vegas they encountered some unfriendly neighbors.
In an exclusive new interview with RadarOnline.com, Kody Brown revealed the painful admission that not all of their neighbors welcomed them with open arms.
"It was pure prejudice," Kody said. "A neighbor tried to have one of my wives evicted." He wouldn't say which wife, but each of his four wives has their own house in Las Vegas, where the family moved after being investigated for polygamy by the District Attorney in their home own in Utah.
Kody said the move hasn't been easy, especially since they've encountered blatant hate from complete strangers.
"We've had people that yell at us out of a window of a car while we're walking on the street."

With two of his four wives, Janelle and Robyn, Kody said that the majority of people in Las Vegas have been kind to their unconventional family. "Only two per cent of people have been mean. The rest have been families just like ours." Jenelle agreed. "We have very family oriented neighbors with five and six kids. We're getting a lot of exposure to the family side of Vegas."
Robyn, who is pregnant, said the family was struggling to earn money. "We are working on a family business but right now we're living off Kody's retirement. It's a challenge to start over again."
She told RadarOnline.com that despite the financial hardships and the strain on the kids moving, they're settling in to their new life. "We all feel good here."

To the people complaining that this is "evil", go read your precious Bibles. When was the last time you did? Polygamy is practiced and supposedly accepted and condoned by God. and that's even ignoring Lillith all together.

She told me that because I have a hart of gold and that I would have plenty of love to share with all. I think
people should quit judging them for the way are living and look at them selfs.

A couple weeks ago my wife asked me how I would feel about additional wives and I told her that would
be hard to adjust to but I think it could be managable.

I don't see a problem with the way their life style is. My wife and I watch Sister Wives every time we get a
chance and enjoy it.

i dont know what all the hate is about
we had a hippie commune here way back when and no one seemed to mind it
the guy ended up getting a great job with the weather service and became a normal dad and family

the family should have moved to NYC, it's common here, besides it's their business, their lifestyle

I don't see why this is illegal & why people are critisizing them. They choose this life & aren't hurting anyone so who cares? They found a way to make money with the show - ya don't like it don't watch but leave them alone!
