I forgot how abusive and oppressive the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is. Thank you Stadium of Fire for reminding me and refueling a long-dead fire.
I had all but forgotten the various abuses against me over the years by LDS church members such as stealing my property, tormenting me emotionally, physically abusing me, falsely imprisoning me, and even discriminating against me. Leave it up to BYU to remind me.
Thanks Stadium of Fire for reminding me that although the LDS Church is true, its members and even some of its leadership and practices are not.

Consumer Safety = Consumer Oppression
As of February 10, 2009 you will no longer be able to buy used or inexpensive toys or clothing. Deseret Industries and the Salvation Army Thrift Stores are effectively dead. Watch for eBay sellers to be criminally prosecuted too. Civil penalties are $100,000 per violation with criminal fines also available. Violators can also expect up to five years in prison and forfeiture of their assets even if they were not aware of the violations.
The reason for this outrageous oppression is that the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act will be in place and bans the sale of anything that is for children that has not been extensively tested for lead. The ban includes even wood and other natural products that cannot possibly contain lead.
Read this article to see just how far this ludicrous law goes.

The only way to comply with the law is to test the products or target the products for adults. Expect your action figures to either cost ten times their current price, disappear completely, or to come with removable genitals to avoid the testing requirement.
Personally, I am really excited to see whether or not the LDS Church closes every Deseret Industries in the country or whether they operate in violation of this new law. My guess is that by February 10th there will be exceptions in place so the Church can avoid the issue but I will be watching closely either way.

Radical Homosexuals' War on the LDS Church will Backfire
The news has been reporting a rash of attacks on the LDS church in the last week following the elections. Mostly these attacks are childish vandals throwing rocks through windows and burning the Book of Mormon on the church doorstep. The last attack was white powder mailed to two LDS temples. Although it is still not released I am sure the white powder will not be Anthrax but will end up being something harmless. The temples shut down for a time while the police investigated these events just as the temple shut down during the homosexual riots in San Diego. Police have not yet said that these cowardly acts are connected to the recent vote on Proposition 8 in California where Californians voted that marriage was solely between a man and woman.
Despite the reluctance of police to state the obvious these attacks are clearly related to the Proposition 8 vote. Radical homosexuals are mad and have declared war on the LDS church. This is a war they will not win. The LDS church is no stranger to persecution, mob violence, and even attempted genocide. What these radical homosexuals can do pales in comparison with what the church has already endured. The church will simply fix the broken windows and will continue on normally regardless of the childish and cowardly terrorist acts by these radical homosexual groups. Yes, I realize broken windows are not terrorist acts but white powder is an act of terror. I also read that radical homosexual groups have actually disrupted church meetings in other religious denominations. Try that in my church.
These terrorist attacks will backfire on the radical homosexuals. I for one gave nothing to support Proposition 8. Frankly, I had heard very little about it until a day or two before the election. Now, thanks to these attacks I will stay aware and if the issue ever arises again -- which it certainly will -- I will send money and I will actively fight for the protection of marriage. Many others agree with me and will fight this war with their votes, time, and money. The next time such a vote arises, the monetary donations from LDS members will be triple what it was this time. Mark my words on that one. Much to the chagrin of the radical homosexuals, their cowardly attacks have caused them far more damage than they have caused the LDS church.
What the radical homosexuals need to do is take a lesson from the LDS church; love one another. These people need good role models that can teach them to love rather than hate. To help rather than hurt others. Really, would Will and Grace burn a Book of Mormon on the steps of a church? I think not.
One final point. The homosexual community does not want equality; they want special privileges. Marriage is equal now. No man can marry another man and no woman can marry another woman. Sexual preference has nothing to do with it. If the real goal was equality the game is over; they already have it.
