May have been from the byu “ward”

For those that are not conversant with mormon system, a home teacher is assigned by the local “priesthood” holders in the ward to go to various homes to “teach” to members.

They refer to works like “home teaching” as “callings”

from lds.org

“Home teaching is the responsibility of all Melchizedek Priesthood holders and of those who are teachers and priests in the Aaronic Priesthood. As part of their responsibility to watch over the members of the Church, home teachers visit their assigned families at least once each month to teach and strengthen them. Home teachers establish a relationship of trust with these families so that the families can call upon them in times of need.”

From the article: following an April 6 incident that he claimed was an April Fool’s joke...

Um....first of all, April Fools is the 1st not the 6th (several days diff there), secondly I saw this type of behavior at BYU by a couple of guys (although no stun guns), and finally...did anyone else notice that this event took place on the anniv of the founding of the LDS church?
