George Moscone was to blame allowing Jim Jones Peoples Temple leave USA!


As the title/subject already shows, Moscone was responsable in allowing or giving an airplane to Jim Jones' Peoples Temple cult leave from Sab Francisco, California, to "hide" for approximately a year & a half from American authorities & police. Much like Morman founder, Joseph Smith's death & leader, Brigham Young's journey from Ohio, to Utah in the 19th Century so they could practice their beliefs & not be arrested.
In 1977, Jim Jones requested a way to leave San Francisco, California, to Mayor George Moscone so the cult could do evil things and not be arrested. Jim Jones decided to commit suicide by a pistol, while a majority of Peoples Temple members, families & children would die by cyanide that was mixed up in jugs of grape-flavored "Kool-Aid". Those that refused to drink it, were shot dead, immediately. This occurred immediately after an unexpected visit by California Congressman, Leo J. Ryan. As Leo J. Ryan and his group were about to return to California, Peoples Temple snipers shot him and their airplanes & prevent/postpone their activities from being known, nine more days.
