Breaking: Border militia leader J.T. Ready suspected as a shooter of killing. Ready was a friend of extremist Russell Pearce

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2012

Everyone in Arizona is aware of racist JT Ready and how close friends he was/is with Russell Pearce.  In fact, Russell Pearce baptized JT Ready via the Mormon Church.   Now we are hearing that he is a suspect in a killing/shooting spree.

Mormons like Russell Pearce, J.T. Ready and Mitt Romney give the Mormon church a bad name.  Mormons in the State of Arizona need to identify FAIR, Kris Kobach, John Tanton, and anti-immigrant groups as evil and vile right now!  This is a racist game costing lives including another toddler!  Isn’t it enough when we had to hear about the minutemen killing Brisenia Flores who was in fetal position begging for her life?

I believe the prophet of the Mormon Church should disseminate communications quickly and aggressively on how dangerous racism is via the hate laws being implemented against immigrants and Latinos — and who is behind them.  Why should the Mormon church step in again?  Come on, Thomas Monson … I’m talking to you, and I know you have the power to do this.  These hate laws are costing lives of my people and I take issue with Mitt Romney who was “proud to receive the endorsement and support” of Kris Kobach — a well known bigot.  Mitt is a Mormon, and he needs to be told how the Mormon missionaries are out in Latin America converting Latinos to Mormonism.  We are all supposed to be brothers and sisters under the sun.  Mitt Romney needs to be told that Kris Kobach is an evil and hateful bigot, and he needs to disassociate himself and reject Kobach’s endorsement right now.  We need to see Mormon leadership again because there are more lives at stake here and it will only get worse unless  the good people who claim to be religious step in.  Commit to memory how Mormons felt about the self deportation and extermination order of Missouri and how Mitt Romney stated he was in support of self-deportation laws.  The John Tanton network and Kris Kobach has been at the helm behind many of these hate laws.   This is an emergency.  Minutemen have already killed innocent people in the state of Arizona, and we are tired of hearing about killings against my people due to these hate and anti-immigrant laws.

We are watching this case closely.

 

From the Arizona Central:

A border militia leader on Wednesday shot and killed four people at a Gilbert home, including a toddler, before committing suicide, sources said.

Sources identified the shooter as Jason “J.T.” Ready, a reputed neo-Nazi who made headlines when he launched a militia movement to patrol the Arizona desert to hunt for illegal immigrants and drug smugglers.

From Stephen Lemons with the Phoenix New Times:

When Valley Neo-Nazi J.T. Ready Converted to Mormonism, Guess Which Prominent Politico Ordained Him an “Elder”

J.T. Ready's certificate, ordaining him an LDS elder. Details of this document were corroborated by members of the Mormon Church.
