Today in the news hatred more violence meant to be personal and in your face. Revenge, to event long for it is not the responds needed. Justice and common ground with others must be found, yes, many battles will come but the enemy must be hate and extremism with a honest look at the reason. I'm aware for some they have sealed their fate, it is those that follow them to do evil we need to find the reason behind this.
It was Jesus that said turn your face to except what ever comes, only great men and women can do that.
Your thoughts when alone and words when with other must always be watched.
Hate and violence is everywhere, as is good and acts of kindness, this humans oldest battle. Evil and hate never last long but do lots of damage. Lone, good, justice and kindness always wins. The proof is as simple as to look at how far we as a humans have come. Crucifixions, beheading and every inhuman method to de-humanize the other has been done against other humans for all times. Sometimes it's just because your different, because were intolerant of others belief, life style, color or look. Like a seed hate grows and the end result is always violence.

( Experience is a knowledge not gained by words, but by Sight, Sound, Victories, Failure, Sleeplessness, Devotion, Love. The Human experience and Emotions of this Earth. Of ones self, of Other men, and perhaps too, A little Faith, Reverence for things you cannot see....... By: Adlai Stevenson. )
