They haven’t started to blow stuff up yet in the name of Smith.

Blow things up? maybe not. Kill people in the name of Smith? OH YEAH.

Do some research on “Blood Atonement” and “Danites”. There are valid reasons there was an extermination order issued in Missouri against Mormons - and part of that involved blood atonement. Also up until the 1930’s there was a blood oath to avenge the death (kill) those involved in the death of Smith.

Both sites are well sourced and accurate and I can give you additional sources if you wish on that topic and others (books and such).
