Benazir Bhutto

Like or hate politics
I can not understand
the mentality of those
who kill for political gain.

My mind is revolted
not by some, but by all
violence, death, destruction
can we not, after all this time,
learn to live peacefully in love.

I am so angry, I cry for humanity
I am so sad, I despair for our future
If you want to kill, if you want revenge
do it through words, not through violence.

Come on humanity, let’s get together
Lets try for tolerance and understanding,
Let empathy reign over violence and mistrust
and only elect those who live by this code.

Agreed. Fortunately, there are so many good, kind people in the world. Unfortunately, they don't get the publicity that their counterparts get :(.

But like all walks of life, it takes only a few to degrade the work of the good, mainly because the press are not interested in the good, only the bad. I just turned off the TV as the reporting from the scene was intrusive. No respect for the injured, no respect for family, supporters. All too quick to apportion blame.

Local example. 1,200 + young adults in the town where I live.
8 young adults that cause problems therefor all young adults are bad :(
