There was once an extermination order against Mormons, so spare me the floodgates are open speech.
The Trib has been around since 1871, and I think its "direction" has been pretty consistent and overt over the course of its existence.
I took issue with your comment because it's exaggerated and baseless. You're not going to believe this, but the Church has been persecuted; had its doctrines misunderstood; and its people mocked for nearly 200 years. You trivialize those thing when you whine about what you perceive to be unfair media coverage of a basketball player. Don't let the irony escape you, Drew and Monson are both ACTIVE MORMONS.
If somehow you think in the next few years Mormons will be chased from their homes, tarred and feathered, and forced to trek across the United States seeking refuge, then yeah, I guess things "are only going to get worse."
