I don’t understand why civility is such a difficult thing for so many people to grasp. If more people even tried to follow the Golden Rule—do unto others as you’d have them do unto you—the world would be a much better place. It’s sad so many people prefer the “eye for an eye” approach to problem solving, since that only perpetuates the problems.

If you find that magic wand, Roy, let me know. I would love to be there

We have someone running for President who believes that violence and hatred is acceptable to achieve one’s goals.
We have too many police who feel they have the power and are answerable only to themselves.
We have too many citizens who watch the jerk running around saying we can kick people around, it’s ok to hate, it’s ok to claim the President is illegitimate, and then the police doing similarly. And, they feel they have the right to do likewise. Without once considering all this activity simply forms a nihilistic, destructive cycle that causes more violence and bloodshed.
And, The Supreme Being has not provided me with the magic wand to set this straight.

Amen to that, Cathy!

No, they do not, Sharon. It is so scary to see how out of control we have become. I pray we can step back and think about better answers to our issues.

You’ve got to the heart of the matter: rushing to judgement and violence doesn’t solve the issues.
