Yikes 😬
The wolf is at the door now. We are at that point in time.

"If you are a Utahn concerned about ongoing threats to librarians and teachers, and book-banning, go to Let Utah Read to learn more about the issues and how you can help."
Oh, did I say this country is at the book-banning stage? I meant the book-burning stage. It's not even randos--but an elected official. She flamethrowered library books in her mama's yard. (Because they were books for gay teens.)
#Utah Women Tried to Report Their Sexual Assaults to #Police. They Say They Faced Delays and Language Barriers.
Several women, all #Mexican immigrants, went to the Provo #police to report OB-GYN David Broadbent for #SexualAssault. They experienced delays, confusion and denials over their reports due to the department’s lack of Spanish-language services.
She Trusted Her First OB-GYN Because He Spoke Spanish. Now She’s 1 of 94 Women Suing Him for Sexual Assault.
The #Utah Supreme Court this week is hearing arguments in the case, which will determine if what 94 women say they experienced was #SexualAssault or medical #malpractice.
@ProPublica this is very common. Nearly 300 Olympic coaches were covered up and the tantra sex community is filled with predators which no one will take seriously. It's not by ignorance, it's by design of the evil that runs our society.
@w7voa “FBI fatally shoots man” - are we sure this wasn’t just an “officer-involved shooting?” Either NBC has updated their style guide or I’m guessing this dude was white 🤔 or the FBI doesn’t get the deference local police do.
When I am below in the valley, I look up, and I see the landscape around me in a certain way. But when I stand at the heights and look down, I see the same landscape in a different way. Perspective matters.
These Men Say Their #Utah Therapist Touched Them Inappropriately During Sessions Paid for by the #LDS Church
A spokesperson for the #church said it does not vet the #therapists its bishops recommend and pay for, saying “it is up to church members” to “make their own decisions.”
@ProPublica I've rarely heard anything about the LDS that would make me want to have anything to do with them. The way they treat women and children, their views on LGBTQ, their rigidity on marriage, church hierarchy, even diet and clothing-just no thanks.
@GottaLaff I’m a cis woman who promises to use only men’s public restrooms in Utah. Your taxes will pay whatever compliance enforcement apparatus they’ve got to find my birth certificate and compare my bare bottom to it.
I think I finally landed on an image to print for that large dark brown frame with light yellow-gold highlights and a Native motif that I have. This was dawn breaking at my campsite after a very rainy night in SE Utah (10/20/2018).
The Salt Lake Tribune and ProPublica reported in August on a range of sex abuse allegations against Owen, who had built a reputation over his 20-year career as a specialist who could help gay men who were members of the LDS Church.
