David was married to Kathleen Darger and had a beautiful family.

It is a shame that there is shunning by those whom he loved the most.

They say he said his good byes to his kids before he went missing.

Not only can it be pinned on Warren Jeffs, he can be held totally responsible for many others.

If you have the power to do good and you do evil, you answer to GOD. Warren Jeffs does evil by telling men to repent from a distance and taking their families away. No wonder they die with broken hearts.

I too believe there is no untimely death. It brings alot of comfort to me. Funerals are God's gift for bringing families together or tearing them apart. The FLDS use them to tear people apart.

The saddest thing in all the world is that David died by himself, alone. When he had so many people who knew and loved him.

Does anyone have more information on this? Where, when, how?
Thanks.

An eye for an eye just makes the whole world blind. Violence is not the answer.

Warren will get his karma whether we do anything or not. If he is left to himself long enough perhaps he will screw things up so badly that even the most devout FLDS will finally wake up to just how wrong this religion is.

Then it ends! And nothing could be better for the people caught up in the madness.

Fundy, those are the best two posts I've ever read of yours.

rumor-has-it said...

Warren Jeffs is , what do you call it when you feed off of other humans? that's it, CANABALISTIC.

I agree that violence is NOT the answer. If you are in a conflict the greatest weapon you need is a county sherrif standing by your side and a video camera running. FLDS don't do things for logical reasons. Words with actions will make the difference.IMO
With all the men and families that have been told to repent from a distance and the ones that have NO HOPE, soon WJ will be cutting off the ones that are helping him the most right NOW. Of course, there are more Nazi children to take their place, only to have the same thing done to them. Who knows how long it will take for the cycle to turn. At least we get to watch from the outside, it is only easier in one degree, just because we will NEVER let that happen again in our lifetime.

Thanks to WJ "Answer them nothing" has helped alot. After all judges and law enforcement take that as pleading guilty.

No one knows for sure what was in the heart of David Draper.

It might of been an accident, it might not.

Only God knows what happened with Mr. Draper and hopefully he sought God peace in his last moments.

How do you know the man in the accident was David Draper?

Anonymous said...

you guys don't need to harm wj nor even turn him in
all you need to do is simply say "no"
and away he goes
as harmless as the day he was born

...but that won't happen
because your hearts are weak and poisoned
to defy wj would be conceding that everything you've ever learned and known
is all one big lie

isn't it ironic
that the only real way to defeat this satan
is to turn your backs on god
(your god that is)

keep sweet eldorado

In the gloaming, O my darling!
When the lights are dim and low
And the quiet shadows falling
Softly come and softly go

For my heart was crushed with longing
What has been, could never be,
It was best to leave you thus dear
Best for you, and best for me

In the gloaming O my darling
Think not bitterly of me!
Tho’ I passed away in silence
Left you lonely, set you free;

When the winds are sobbing faintly
With a gentle unknown woe
Will you think of me and love me
As you did once long ago?

---
David Draper, a friend and brother I will always remember with fondness. May his memory be only of a man who loved his children more than his life.

Please my fellow children of God, do not use this mans death as bullets in your war. I am sure he would appreciate it.

Who was the kid who was shot? How old and was he killed or injured?

That was beautiful and very fitting. I hope all will respect your request regarding the bullets. I never knew David personally but as with all who have passed on he is beyond the reach of our censure and should only be respected in the best way we can.

I knew David and he was one of the most loving and gentel men i knew that his family was taken from him shows us all that WJ is the tool of the devil. child and mind molester. may god not have mercy on his soul...

Although i'm not FLDS, I knew David from his days at CMC Hardware. He was always polite, helpful, good natured, and friendly to this "wicked apostate". It seems like the Hardware store that employeed, David Draper, Amos Musser, and David Musser hired people that cared a bit more about God's children then shunning innocent people. Unfortunately, Amos and David Draper were run out of town. I think Amos got out with at least one wife and it sounds like they took David Drapers wife away. I don't know the status of David Musser, if he's still in "good standing" he must have repudiated his father and grandfather by now. It is very sad to see honest people abused in this way. Remember God is just and that is why we can have confidence and faith in him.

Anon 5:12 and fttc:

I heartily agree with your lovely sentiments.

I knew David. Few will ever understand what he went through personally. For those of us who knew and cared for him, our memories are cherished.

Using his death to promote personal agendas and speculation is not only uncalled for, it's inappropriate.

May David's family and many friends find comfort and peace.

one lonely broken heart
searching for the answers
eight beautiful children dear
loved with all his heart
a wife so sweet and talented
so hard to walk away from
obedience to the prophet
removed all freedom and care

where is the love?
who can understand?
how can i repent?
what is repentance?
why am i not worthy?
why is life worth living?

thru the anguish of exile
the pain was to much
for one lonely broken heart

nice try ots not going to happen. The more we talk about it, the more people will come to realize how truly evil that man warren jeffs is and how he is not worth the lives that he has destroyed!@!@@@@@

ATAR_i said...

red rocks. I think OTS was referring to FTTC's request that no one post on the 10th out of respect to the dead.

I didn't post either.

I'm not sure the word got out enough though, it was just written at the bottom of a couple threads.

It was sort of a blog - cease fire.

Anonymous said...

The rumor is that David was sent away for mental unstablity and the reason that he was done was that he heard that his wife had gotten remarried and that left him with NO HOPE

Anonymous said...

Thanks to all who participated in the cease-fire in respect to David. The funeral was small and his own children weren't allowed to attend. It is a good reflection on humanity that complete strangers are willing to pause and respect one of God's battered children.

ATAR_i said...

His children weren't allowed to attend? Were they turned away, or were they not allowed to come?

fttc said...

Sorry Street

After the proper respects have been paid and the deceased laid to rest it would be a disgrace to his memory to cease to fight in the cause of truth. The evils that sent him away from his family, that kept his own children from attending that last rites in his honor, that continue to threaten so many more families and the peace of a community must be attended to. There are so many who have fallen asleep at the helm of their families. They have allowed warren to usurp their authority and they need to wake up lest there are more casualties such as this. The fight against these evils cannot stop because the evil one has been victor once or twice. We must battle to the last man in honor of those who have fallen.

atar_i, David's children weren't allowed to attend the funeral by their step-grandfather, with whom they live.

Hear, Hear!

Wow, that's something.

Uncle Ratt
SO who is Steets dad?? Is he still alive? was he in the council??

Anonymous said...

Street's dad was Edson Jessop. He is no longer alive. He mercifully died before he could witness the systematic destruction of the religion that he loved and worked his entire life for.

He was not in "the council" but he was the appointed secretary or scribe for the meetings. He was also a very respected member of the community and would turn in his grave to hear Val's rants.

David Draper was one of the few men in the "Priesthood Work" who grew up being obedient as a young man and was obedient to his father. He never got into one tenth of the evil actions and such that Warren and his brothers were into as they were growing up. David took all the teachings of the brethren to heart and was a good man. He was an example to all and was far more humble than most. David had the misfortune of coming from a time when the brethren didn't believe in getting more than a eighth grade education. He went to Alta Academy when it was in its infancy and the quality of training wasn't as good as in the later years, they didn't start having high school classes until about 3 years after David got out of eighth grade. David only ever worked for Priesthood businesses, most of which took advantage of him and would only pay him the minimum they could, a common trait with Priestood businesses.

I am truly sad to see what Warren has done to David. There was nothing wrong with the life that David lived. He was a good man and well trained in the principles of the Gospel. David would have made a far better leader than Warren and Warren knows that. David was a pure and innocent man, he would have made a fair leader and judge. He kept himself pure until he was given a wife by the Priesthood. He was a faithful and kind husband to his dear wife.

David, as you rest in a place of paradise, the Lord and Savior being the final judge, remember this important thing, "To hell with Warren Steed Jeffs". Go get a big hug from our brother, friend and Lord, none other than Jesus Christ and hear what he has to say in a job well done. I am sure that Jesus has a great mission for you in the work he is performing there.

Is Bishop Willy Timspon somehow connected to Edson Jessop?

Thank you Uncle Ratt.

can you say why you don't think so?

Holy Cow!! Street, you just admitted that you are Uncle Val!!! I can't hardly believe it! Some of the rants and carrying on that Street does just doesn't sound like you at all! Some of us thought that you were Tom Barlow because some of the stuff that Street posted sounded like the ranting of the insane......What happened to you?

ATAR_i said...

OK - now that we know that OTS is Val - can you tell us about Val?
