hard to believe there is any validity to this ignoramus attempt at journalism. when it was stated early on that Joseph Smith Jr. was killed in Chicago. I just had to laugh at the incorrectness of that erroneous fact. the actual fact is that Joseph Smith Jr. was martyred at the jail in Carthage, Illinois, far from Chicago. now I can only imagine that from that point forward in the absolutely titled correctly, Weird History I must doubt all other so call facts postulated by this retromingent fallacy of journalism.

sigh I miss my home born and raised there for 31 years and we just moved to Tennessee about 2 months ago and this video really made me miss it. But it makes sense, there are A LOT of Mormons in Vegas. Lol I always wondered why that was. I thought they were just really trying to convert the city known as sin city and America's playground lol.

Mormons ate indelibly greedy, and power hungry. They always got thrilled noses up everybody's business, trying to ifvthey can get an angle. They are never satisfied anc always seem to want more, and other people everything. I avoid them as much as is possible, and keep em at a healthy distance.

When the saints reached the salt lake valley Brigham young told the saints to continue west and start new communities everywhere and if you investigate the western part of the US you will find that it was founded by Mormons or Saints to be accurate.

Joseph smith didnt die in Chicago. He died in a town called Carthage. Carthage is next door to the Mormon settlement nauvoo where they went when they were pushed out of New York because Joseph smith was a known charlatan and the polygamy thing.

They were not Mafia as the Mafioso. Nope far from it. They were just dubbed as the Mormon gang. But they never had a bad rep as far as crime is concerned. Infact the reason for hiring them was because of their trusted values. Great stuff.

Convenient to leave out the part about Smith being killed over stealing horses and being a pedophile. Why were they on the run. not persecution over religion but rather they were criminals and people didn't want them around

Howard Hughes's Mormon care takers were accused of killing Howard Hughes by neglect. His body was in terrible condition including broken off needles in his arms at the time of his death. You might want to research that.

The fact you got where Joseph Smith was killed so wrong makes me doubt the accuracy of this whole video. Joseph was killed in Carthage, not Chicago. It's literally on the other side of the state from Chicago.

3 different groups were involved in making Las Vegas a hot gambling destination: the Italian mafia, the Jewish mafia, and the Mormon mafia. Interesting bedfellows.

Moe Greene invented Las Vegas. This was a great man, a man of vision and guts. And there isn't even a plaque, or a signpost or a statue of him in that town!

That's so wrong, and contradicted to the Mormons' teaching.
Gamble and drinking are a no to the faith. It's also wrong to persuade or invest in them.

Has anybody bothered to ask if weird history would like to sponsor a video on Joseph Smith and his presidential campaign in Ohio in 1844.

I actually live not too far from the Mormon Rocks outside of San Bernardino, my grandpa would joke and say the President lives there.
