I'm not defending Smith. He was a boozer and womanizer. Though those aren't necessarily bad qualities

. Most likely he was a *****. People were threatened by losing political power to the mormons. The governor backed the masses as did the president.

You'd think the courts would do something, but that is the mormons fault for not sueing I suppose and bringing the case all the way to the supreme court if need be.

Things are better now, we have organizations like the ACLU who will sue in your behalf if you lack the money. ACLU does some strange things, but they are good for this country.

the good thing is we are the closest to the ideals set forth in the constitution than we ever were. It's just the past I'm ashamed of.
