Typical Crowbot.
Ya know, institutions area lot like people. Good people, if you were to see their lives in their entirety, would have a few pretty bad scenes. I'm sure that's doubly true with you, Crowbot!-- Not even your you could be classified as a "good person" but I digress.
Yeah the Mormons had their massacre. I've been to the site,very interesting. The Paute Indians left that valley after the massacre, considered the place cursed. My great great grandfather was a Mormon child living in Cedar City at the time.. he recalled as a child seeing the blood stained clothing taken from the massacred people (the Fancher Company) on the trading house floor.
So, as LDS President Benson said above, "Time is always on the side of Truth".. or as the Bible says elsewhere,
"Be sure your sins will find you out.". And "The fear of God is the beginning of Wisdom"
Time: it took twenty years before Mormon Bishop John D Lee, the orchestrator of the massacre,was captured and executed by Federal troops for his crime. He spent a year in jail before hand, writing his memoirs. in his book" the confessions of JD LEE" he implicated then President Brigham Young in the massacre, saying Young had both knowledge and approval beforehand.
This idea seems to be backed up by the journal of then Apostle John Taylor, who recorded Youngs visit to the site somewhere around 1860 (3 years after the massacre) as I recall.
Federal soldiers had discovered the site, littered with bodies having been unearthed from shallow graves ywild animals. They buried these people in a mass grave, and marked the spot with a 12 foot high cross -- andan iinscription which read: "Vengeance is Mine,sayth The Lord"
According to Taylor, Brother Brigham has the cross torndown, remarking: "Vengeance is mine,and I've taken a little!"
Young was probably refering to the fact these people had come from Arkansas-- where Parley Pratt had been murdered, not to mention the Hauns Mill Massacre in MisDouro years before, and countless abuses in which the Mormons had been the victims.
That aside, Lee's later claims were denied by the Mormons, their version of CNN claimed Brigham was pure as the driven snow-- ( like you Libs think of Obozo and Creepy Joe)
Lee put a Mormon Curse on Brigham ( yes, such things do exist) saying "If Brigham is innocent,he will live. If he is guilty as I have said, he will die within a year."
Lee was excited by a firing squad. Brigham died of natural causes ONE YEAR to the day after Lee pronounced his own version of "prophesy"
And God,it seems has a sense of humor.. fast forward 120 years. The LDS Church downplayed all the above, insisting BYU's namesake was innocent, Lee acted alone. But the survivors of the dead wanted justice. They wanted access to the site, uncover andDNA ID their relatives, and give them a propper burial. the church owned the land and denied them access, which had pissed them off for generations
So now theLDS church wanted an end to all the negativity. They decidedly recognize the site. They were going to build a monument there. As the first backhoe dug the footers for the monument - (and since no one knew exavtly where these people were buiried in1858 -- thanks to Brigham destroying that cross-)
Paydirt. Femers and Skulls. OMG-- what a LDS public relations disaster!
That said, the LDS church isn't representative of such behavior, as a whole. Ezra Taft Benson was a wise man, and a man of faith. He nailed you libs in his speech above-- a true Mormon Prophet if there ever was one
And so, As he said correctly, Time is not a friend of lies and liars .
Like Brigham, you Libs have your own lies and crimes to cover up.
like Covid and stealing the last election,
like Mexico and Ukraine,and Afghanistan.
Creepy Joe makes Brother Brigham look like a Saint after all
And Hoe makes you fools look like
Useful idiots!
