I watched a movie called SEPTEMBER DAWN. Compliments of Netflix. Its depends who you talk to whether its true or not. It did happen BUT historians, scholars, writers whomever have added or embellished.
The bottom line is people died. Religious persecution. God told me to kill the heathens. In my opinion God had nothing to do with it, its man using God’s name in vain.
Its a very very sad story. Even sadder that the Mormons used and blamed the Indians. Even sadder still a lot of Mormons probably believe the Indians did do it. Because you know they are savages like that. Or so the media has made it out that way. Who is the media and the historians?
Although the Mormon church denies a lot of this story….. well who am I to judge. You watch the movie you make up your own. I make up mine. I think there is more truth then their is fiction. Something happened no doubt. How do we know it wasn’t even worst? We will never know. I’m thinking there may be stories that have been handed down generation to generation. Then there may also be the vow of silence and if nobody talks about it or writes about it, then the story will never be known.
It pisses me off that people do what they do and use GOD as the reason. And blaming the Indians. Classic. Have you ever seen the movie SOLDIER BLUE. You don’t want to, its another massacre. Another no we didn’t do that movie. Whatever.
This movie is based on the Mountain Meadow Massacre. That happened in the 1857 in an area north of St. George, Uah.
