		<description>It&#039;s not a surprise that Brad Daw is a big government guy.  He claims to be a member of the Patrick Henry Caucus (i.e. the most conservative members of the Utah House)  but his actions belie his conservative claims.

He&#039;s put a state controlled database in place to limit the amount of prescription drugs any individual can purchase and I&#039;ve read where he wants to do the same thing with loans.  If he&#039;d have his way he would do the same with alcoholic beverages.    

If he is in such favor of limited government, why is he so intent on big brother databases?  Brad Daw is a big government goon.</description>

		<description>I think you are jumping to conclusions, a charge doesn&#039;t automatically equate to guilt.  You should read more about how our justice system works.
Hugh Nibley was accused by his daughter of molesting her.  Does that make the accusation true?   Get a life!</description>

		<description>This is a tragedy in and of itself.   You are making excuses for these murderers who killed over 120 UNARMED men, women and children.   The indians didn&#039;t shoot the pioneers at point blank range after they had surrendered!  That was ALL on the cowards who were known as Mormons.   
Your unpublished letters are BS, and irrelevant.   The indians had a small part in the overall crime.</description>

		<description>I am a descendant of many of the pioneers who lived in Southern Utah at the time of the massacre. My ancestors are among the leaders of the area, those who took children in afterward, and probably some of the perpetrators as well, although most personal histories deny that they were there.  I too believe it was a terrible tragedy.  

There are many angles to any given story and often the loudest is wrongly considered the most correct.  Much attention has been given to the victims of the massacre and not enough to the political  and social pressures that caused to to occur.  

However, these travelers were not as innocent as they have been made out to be.  I have unpublished letters written by my ancestors which tell how this wagon train had an ox die in the Fillmore area.  When the Indians asked for the ox so they could eat it, members of the wagon train poisoned it before they gave it to them, causing sickness and death in the Indian tribe.  The Indians were outraged and demanded revenge, which in their culture meant a life for a life.

 By the time they reached the Cedar City area it was obvious to the Indians that they would be leaving the area.  The Indians claimed that if they could not get their revenge on the wagon train, then the lives of  local settlers would be taken to balance the score.

These people had been told to live at peace with the Indians which they had been doing for several years,and hoped to continue to do.   I do not condone what the Mormon settlers did, but I believe they were victims of their place in history.   Should they protect the wagon train at the expense of their own lives?  A difficult question at any time.

Biased posts like this one only tell facts from one angle and continue predjudice where it does not belong.  Shame on YOU.</description>

		<description>Maybe he believes in having pot for himself.  And maybe he feels justified by the fact that ganja is ordained in Genesis 1:29 as being good for use as meat &quot;every herb that bear seed&quot;.   And if so, then what he did was not illegal, because it is defended by the 1st Amendment. 
 
As for if he was selling or not.  I think you are assuming.  The news report also didn&#039;t have any details about clients, or excess funds. </description>

		<description>&quot;If he believes in Ganja?&quot;    How about if he believes in Capitalism?  16 pounds of Marijuana (by whatever name you think is cool this week) is worth a lot of money!  At least $38,000 if it&#039;s good! 
 
     He has never made any public statements about legalizing pot. He never introduced legislation to legalize pot.  He does not have a job at least not  in the public sector as of the date of his arrest! I have not been able to find any information about him being an advocate for homeless, unemployed or otherwise downtrodden people, that he wasn&#039;t paid for!   
 
  Having a good paying job, that takes care of people, does not indicate that he cares about people, it just indicates that he got a job that payed him to help people!  
 
   I find it interesting that you believe a man who has never made any public statements about legalizing pot, but was simply arrested for having a large quantity in what appeared to be a cultivation and distribution operation, was standing up for what he believes!  Notice the police report does not say they caught him smoking marijuana, nor did it say they also found paraphernalia in the home, which Utah police love to report!  So is he a consumer/grower/salesman or is he just taking advantage of the people he used to help by selling them marijuana, but doesn&#039;t smoke it himself?  
 
  It&#039;s easy to see what you want to see in a news report but just because you see it does not prove its there!

		<description>If he believes in ganja, then he did what he believes is right, and for many years fought for the poor and helpless in Utah.  This man appears to stand up more than most for what he believes.   Have you served as a legislator? </description>

   How can you say he is standing up for what he believes?  He hid his Marijuana in a closet!   Then he resisted arrest when he was caught!
