No. They still blame the Indians and John D. Lee (who was acting under orders by the Cedar City Bishop and possibly B. Young himself).

Why should they? That's like demanding white people today apologize because some white people in the past held blacks as slaves.

I'm not in favor of modern day people apologizing for stuff other people did in the past. It's just plain silly.

Yes!

They are sorry that a MORMON was convicted of the crime.

A Mormon.

One who must have been a VERY good Sharpshooter and a VERY fast reloader to KILL 120 people!
