Gosh Delph, you really need to read some of these post about Mountain Meadows. The Mormon men hastily buried the dead in mass graves, of that you are correct.
The wolves and coyotes dug them up and scattered their remains because they weren’t given a PROPER burial.
Man... bud, get your head outa the sand. Try reading one thing. Take any single rendition of the Mountain Meadows Massacre by ANYBODY who is not LDS. Is the whole world “anti” to you?

I just remember reading your post, and you said They were buried (proper or not you did not say that I remember) then I read his post about how they were buried later, and thought wait
So I pinged you. As far as facts go, I kind of consider you an expert on the whole thing (yes you should be flattered grin)
The wolves and coyotes dug them up and scattered their remains because they werent given a PROPER burial.
Which explains the reburial stuff

I have always been more interested in the politics leading up to and the cover-up after ward, than the gory event itself, It happened, It was shameful, Mormon men were involved, Mormons did not tell all that they knew to the authorities, The church leaders had no direct involvement and even indirect involvement is shaky in the proof department, they ordered Mormons to cooperate, the didnt. What more do I really need to know about the actual bloody event? Do I really need to read all the descriptions of bodies? Im not going to get sick or something, but its just not my interest, the politics of what was happening, that is interesting, at least to me, kind of like liking going to receptions, I guess Im just a weird duck, I quack funny (grin)
