This massacre occurred on 9/11...9/11/1857...and was truly THE first 9/11 domestic act of terror committed upon Americans...the Fancher/Baker parties who were attempting to reset their lives in Central California (most were from Arkansas).

Many of those involved in the massacre were either Lds leaders or eventual spiritual leaders...IoW (some were "rewarded" with Lds local leadership positions AFTER the massacre).

ONLY one Mormon involved in the massacre of children, teens, moms, dads was ever held accountable justice-wise.

LDS’ers will descend on that MMM site like white on rice and there will be trouble.

The IT revolution is a bitch where uncovering the truth is concerned, and Mormons are feeling the ground starting to quake beneath their feet. On any site where the LDS church & its secret rites are discussed, Mormon comments are becoming more belligerent & even threatening.

Kinda like the Muslims, also increasingly uncertain of the truthfulness of their religion. This isn’t gratuitous; Joseph Smith is on record as admiring Mohammed & the Koran.

The Fancher wagon train was organized in Harrison Arkansas. Fancher actually also owned land in Benton County about a mile from where I live.

Two other wagon trains were also attacked with loss of life. The Miltmore train and the Shephard train.

The Mountain Meadows area was considered, by the Mormons, to be haunted for many years after.

The 1857 massacre was orchestrated by members of the Mormon Church against the Fancher-Baker wagon party as it traveled to California during a time when hostility against non-Mormons in Utah was high, according to an account by the University of Missouri.

Another distrustful cult with a history of murder behind it.

In all likelihood, the person most responsible for the atrocity has a university named after him.

The church, which didn't completely acknowledge its role in the tragedy until 2007, erected a monument in honor of the victims at a site 1,000 or more feet away from the newly discovered stone sepulchers.

Evidently god tells things at different rates to different Living Prophets®

"I am a true believer in the gospel of Jesus Christ, I do not believe everything that is now being taught and practiced by Brigham Young.

 I do not care who hears it. It is my last word - it is so.

 I believe he is lead­ing the people astray, downward to destruction.

 But I believe in the gospel that was taught in its purity by Joseph Smith, in former days.

 I have my reasons for it.

 

"I studied to make this man's [Brigham Young] will my pleasure for thirty years.

See, now, what I have come to this day!

 

"I have been sacrificed in a cowardly, dastardly manner." (Lee enun­ciated this sentence with marked emphasis.)
