“For 33 hours, I was … I was praying that if this had to happen here, that it wouldn’t be one of us. That somebody drove from another state, somebody came from another country,” he said. “Sadly, that prayer was not answered the way I hoped for. Just because I thought it would make it easier on us if we could just say ‘Hey, we don’t do that here.’”
Now that you’ve had to admit, “Hey, we do do that here” what are you doing with that? Have you experienced any epiphanies?
Honestly, if he’d just left it at “another state,” I wouldn’t even be mad. I totally get wanting the degree of separation. But adding “another country” absolutely betrays his true thoughts. What a gross thing to admit.
Mormon temple ritual in which they move their hand across their lower stomach/bowels (not throat, sorry, it’s been a long time since I left Mormonism) and vow to spill the blood of enemies of the Mormon church
This is part of a ritual called “the endowment” which is required for every person to do if they want to get into the highest level of heaven, called “the Celestial Kingdom”. Someone who receives this endowment ritual (which is most practicing adult Mormons) is called “endowed”. This endowment ritual can only be performed inside a Mormon temple.
I’m an exmo as well, the gestures you’re talking about were removed in 1990, and it was never about vowing to spill the blood of enemies. It was about secrecy, framed in stark death-before-dishonor terms.

How ugly that is to admit it out loud. What a fucking racist
The quote makes it seem a lot more understandable than the title makes it out to be imo
TBH - that’s exactly why I added the quote when I posted the article. But I still think it’s fucked up with the full context; just not as fucked up.
I mean, plenty of us were hoping the shooter wasn’t antifa, and that’s not so different.
Someone I could hate and justify that hatred against the Left…
Hell no. Their magic underwear keeps that from happening.
And throat slit vow
Throat slit vow?

Your version is more metal and exciting, though.
What a fucking joke of a human
hes spencer cox, what you expect, hes the one that allowed GUNS ON CAMPUS in the first place.
Womp womp. I assume he’s a lot like the governor I have to deal with here in Missouri
Clearly, we must thoughts and prayers even harder.
All these people keep on praying, but the whole time they forgot to think
sounds like tiffany the expensive jewelry chain.
