Up until about 20 years ago it was legal to kill Mormons in the State of Missouri.

Think he's jokeing, becaue we all know some Southern Baptist would have shot up a church down there by now if it was legal.

yeah, I'm joking. We all know Ohio and Illinois are the only states with those laws still on the books.  ;)
Southerners thing "mormons" are some king of middle-eastern religion

Note: as a southerner, I'm ALLOWED to make fun of the south. You all, as non-southerners, will be offensive if you do so. It's sort of like black people using the N-word.

Would you actualy go to jail for murder if you killed a Mormon in a state with that law still on the books?

I reckon the family of the victim would be amazingly successful at challenging the constitutionality of the Extermination order, and that the guy would go to jail.

Even so, wouldn't the person be protected, since they killed the person before the law was changed? Ex post facto, I think it is called. (This is disregarding the fact that murder is a federal offense, so the state law couldn't contradict federal law)

actually, murder is not a federal offense.

I like to trust in the rationality of the legal system, and that it would acknowledge an unconstitutional executive order (it wasn't a law, it was an order given by the governor) 160 years ago is not enforceable.

Interesting, did not know that.
