The Missouri Supreme Court on Tuesday struck down a law that threatened homeless people with jail time for sleeping on state land.
Judges ruled unanimously to toss the law for violating a section of the Missouri Constitution that prohibits legislation from containing multiple unrelated subjects.
In this case, the sweeping 64-page bill also dealt with city and county governance and banned COVID-19 vaccine requirements for public workers in Missouri.
Judges ruled that the law is “invalid in its entirety,” Judge Paul Wilson wrote in the court’s decision.
I’m familiar with the story.
Missourians hated Smith so much they gathered into another mob (Mormons were chased across Missouri by mob after mob) and went and executed him in another state. He was taking their chattel, they didn’t cotton to that.
Now,…I don’t think he was a great man or a prophet; more like a grifting, glass-looking scammer. But I certainly don’t agree with any government order to execute any group of people on sight.
I dont know. Smith was a grifter like you said, and blew up his own cult just so he could fuck as many teenage girls as he wanted. He essentially institutionalized child abuse by church elders such that the US army had to be called in, and there are still groups of cultists who still do this. Smith was essentially above the law, and was preparing to marshal an army to resist the US government for the right to fuck every child
