The killer had a long history of hating Mormons and threatening to do what he finally did. It is just so sad.
We are still in shock around here.
Isn’t it amazing, though, that the anti’s on FR just could not resist the temptation to trash our faith during this time?

So, ya mean the Lds church recalled its missionaries from the region around the East Texas town of Dangerfield when a man killed 5 & wounded 10 in a Baptist church in 1980?
Or the Lds church recalled its missionaries from Ft. Worth, TX, in 1999 when a gunman killed eight and wounded almost as many in a Baptist church there?
Or the Lds church recalled its missionaries from Colorado Springs, CO, when a gunman killed several there 3 years ago?
I mean, after all, Marion G. Romney, part of the Lds First Presidency (highest hierarchy in the church) said one of the four key parts of Lds missionary discussion training with "prospects" was for Lds missionaries to proclaim all about the alleged "universal apostate" status of All Christian sects -- coupled with the alleged "restoration."
Wouldn't it have been highly insensitive, Saundra, on the part of Lds missionaries to go door to door, ringing doorbells following all of those tragic shootings, and talk about Christians as if they were "apostates?" So, hearing this comment of yours, you must be telling me that the Lds church must have stopped proclaiming what it believed to be true for months on end in each of these communities post-shooting. Right?
Right?

And they pretend to not understand why I jumped to a conclusion about their motives. /head shake
