The driver took a runner but her passenger stayed around. Odd.

Is SLC a sanctuary city?

While I have my own issues with Mormonism, this woman was a US citizen just going about her business who was deliberately run down by a car. That’s not good, she did nothing to deserve that and so humor at the expense of her religion doesn’t strike me as appropriate or fair at all.

Yeah, I can’t comprehend comments such as that. There’s one woman dead, one person in critical condition, and four more in the hospital. Not that the religion of the victims (which is unknown) makes any difference, but I guess because SLC is about 40% Mormon, this is supposed to be funny? That’s sick.

“Is SLC a sanctuary city?”

Big time. Mayor, Police Chief and County Sheriff all support illegals. But the Sheriff has decided to bail to a small town in Southern Utah.

From the CDC:
“In 2015, 5,376 pedestrians were killed in traffic crashes in the United States.This averages to one crash-related pedestrian death every 1.6 hours.”

Additionally, almost 129,000 pedestrians were treated in emergency departments for non-fatal crash-related injuries in 2015.2 Pedestrians are 1.5 times more likely than passenger vehicle occupants to be killed in a car crash on each trip.”

Is all this new activity or just being highlighted due to the terrorist activity related to this type incident ??

Thomas Monson; the Living Prophet® of The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latterday Saints should have seen this coming.

I don’t agree with Mormonism myself but I try to deal with individuals as individuals. Not everybody is going to agree on everything, about anything. Most Mormons I’ve met have been polite, decent individuals.

From your home page:

I fully support the statement of the Founder of FreeRepublic wherein he stated: As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty.

 

 

He also said:

"I’ll put it this way. I don’t believe a single word written by Joseph Smith or his followers when it departs from the Word of God as recorded in the Holy Bible and I’m not thrilled about people coming here to preach some false gospel from the pages of Free Republic."
