Liberal Intolerance #109: Political Terrorism At A Mormon Temple In Los Angeles… White Powder!

CBS 2 has the details…

The FBI says a letter containing a suspicious white powder sent to a Mormon temple in the Westwood area of Los Angeles was not hazardous.

The temple was evacuated Thursday while a hazardous materials crew tested the substance and determined it was non-toxic.

A temple in downtown Salt Lake City received a similar envelope containing a white powder that spilled onto a clerk’s hand. The room was decontaminated and the envelope taken by the FBI for testing. A spokesman for the Salt Lake City Fire Department says the clerk showed no signs of illness, but the scare shut down a building at Temple Square for more than an hour.

Protests in recent days have targeted the Mormon church, which encouraged its members to support the recently passed amendment banning gay marriage in California.

According to a news report from this link, the temple in Salt Lake City also received a similar envelop. I don’t think anyone can say that this is a stunning development, as the behavior by the gay lobby has been unhinged since proposition 8 passed on Nov. 4th. The real question is how long will authorities allow for these shenanigans to go on for? Do we really need someone to get hurt before we see any kind of political and public rebuke of these acts of domestic terrorism? I understand that the Democratic Party sees the gay lobby as a strong voting constituency, but I would think that some decency remains in the hearts and minds of these political leaders that would give them the fortitude to condemn these actions of intimidations against the American voting citizenry.
