Feeling Sad

After the events of this weekend I am feeling really sad. I know that as a country we can do better than this.  Unless you are of Native American ancestry or part of the First People of Canada ancestry you have no right to complain that some one is an immigrant or that their parents immigrated to this country legally or illegally. You must learn your history or be prepared to repeat it.

We are a country of laws that include the right to worship in the manner of of our parents and grandparents.  It is beyond obscene that someone should be murdered as they pray.  It seems to be happening to much in to many churches, synagogues and mosques across this land.

At this point in time I will kindly ask that if you do not love this country that so many have given the ultimate sacrifice, so that we may enjoy the freedom to worship, meet, shop, and live where we choose. By all means please leave this country.  To quote an often used phrase of the 1960’s “America love it or leave it. “ my friends and family wish to live in peace and welcome anyone who shares our values.  Peace and prosperity are wonderful things.
