October 27, 1838

On October 27, 1838, Missouri governor Lilburn Boggs issued his famous ‘Extermination Order”. This was the official order that told all Mormons to leave the state or to be killed. When asked why he was picking on the Mormons, Boggs said it was because they weren’t the ‘right’ kind of Christian and the only things worse than Mormons were Jews, Catholics, and those people who watch anime for the tentacle porn.

125 years later, the Daleks issued an "Extermination Order", causing generations of British children to hide behind the sofa, until The Doctor showed up to save the day and remind everyone to Share Twisted-History.
