SALT LAKE CITY — One of the victims in Friday's mass shooting at an Aurora, Colo. movie theater is an LDS high school basketball star who visited BYU just weeks ago.


After the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attack the local paper highlighted the local people who were killed. We're over 800 miles from New York so the local paper was interested in the local angle. I don't see any difference.

That's the point. Wounded by ricochet fragments and this Mormon suddenly is as injured as those in the actual theater where the gunman was.


How dare anyone try to elicit sympathy for a Mormon who was shot in the face! It wasn't even a direct shot!

Sarcasm aside, this thread and your comments are just a disgusting display of depravity and idiocy.

Don't ya love the double standard? If it had been ME that got killed, Mormons would say that God placed me there as punishment for mocking him in his holy temples. But if it's a Mormon, they don't say squat about him being killed for a reason.


Hey dumbass, read the article next time before you shoot off your mouth.

When the wrong doer is a Mormon and that fact is stated in the media, some practicing Mormons are all over how irrelevant it is.

So how is a victim's religion relevant here?

Hey you asswipe -- I'm bad. Call me something too. Be nasty and say dirty stuff, because, I like that and so does the Mormon jezzus.

Mormons are liars -- just like the lies of Facsimile No. 3 which Joe Smith blew out of his ass.

I'm sure he can do more than just type it -- I' trust he has his hand all over it.

Ain't that right Mak-boy?

It's not, which is why it's pretty stupid for someone to be using her religion to try to marginalize her experience.

No, you're just a juvenile with a lot of people here who give you a wide berth because of how fragile your self esteem is. The OP is idiotic. If you'd like to defend it then go ahead, but don't waste everyone's time with your off-topic emotional masturbation.

Thank you for stroking my ego and especially for mentioning the word MASTURBATION.

I'm not interested in defending the OP. But offending you was my sole intention. Apparently, I was successful. You're easy to offend because you're so full of judgement -- a typical Mormon.

Do you believe in jezzus? Then turn the other cheek you asswipe.
