Two Des Moines Police Officers Ambushed and Slaughtered
After this election, can we try to find common ground with other people? Is it possible to come together as communities and focus on support, lifting up, and finding strength in each other? Really tired of constant divisions. Really tired of constant Us v. Them. Really tired of seeing violence and hatred thrive while conversation and peace struggle. Or is that too idealistic a hope?
That isn’t because Officers were killed. And, it should be known, that the Ambusher was white. So this isn’t about race. And that is my point, I guess. The violence, the hatred, the evil… it infects everywhere and everyone. It doesn’t matter who you define as THEM… especially when there are so many reasons to define a broad set as US. We all have more in common than different.
Why do hatred and evil win when it takes so little for understanding to thrive?
