Repeating war crimes in history is not acceptable! Have we not learned from this past? The Bible is a prime written example of lessons to be learned from these past atrocities! Over and over men have ignored these lessons, and it is past the time to STOP repeating hate!
It astounds me to hear the confusion and fear that is generated out of ignorance, a fear that is simply not warranted. People without compassion wanting to hear what they want to hear, and this is where falsehoods derive; hate develops into anger and fighting, and then all-out war and genocides. You cannot talk to, let alone discuss in a sensible manner, anything with anyone who has their mind made up and ears closed to the truth.
You may ask, what is the truth? I say, look at history; weigh the issues; fill your heart with compassion; think about how it feels to be turned away and put back into the hands of those who want to either kill you or limit your goodness and freedom.
We are a country that professes to be free, and yet there are many who want to stomp that freedom into the ground, limiting all walks of life to live freely amongst one another without fear.
A country and a religion should never define a person; we should never put a person in a box, whether to identify or condemn a person, which seems to be what these blasphemous so-called political party representatives are perpetuating.

Donald Trump said tonight he’d implement a database system tracking all Muslims in the United States – including Americans of Muslim faith. All Muslims in the U.S. would be legally obligated to register "at different places" around the country, putting their personal tracking information into the database. When asked how his idea differed from what the Nazi’s required of Jews, Trump responded, four times, “you tell me.”
I find it less surprising that Donald Trump is now mimicking Nazi Germany than that no current or former Republican leader has yet denounced Trump's shameless bigotry. Nor, for that matter, has any current or former Democratic leader. It is necessary that Barack Obama, along with all living former presidents, leaders of the clergy, university presidents, heads of every large philanthropy, and editors-in-chief of every major newspaper, condemn this hateful venom from the leading Republican candidate for president of the United States. Every hour it stands without rebuke is more poison leeching into the bedrock of America.
What do you think?
George Takei wrote this on Donald Trump’s Facebook wall:
In an interview, Donald Trump refused to rule out requiring all Muslims to carry special religious identification, or to rule out warrantless searches of their homes and places of worship. Said Trump, "We’re going to have to do things that we never did before….we’re going to have to do certain things that were frankly unthinkable a year ago." Many recall, with horror, how Jews were forced to wear special religious identification in Nazi Germany--a yellow star of David. In the U.S., my own family, and over a hundred thousand other Japanese Americans, were tagged like mere pieces of luggage, with no charges, with no trial, with no due process, before they shipped us off to prison camps.
Mr. Trump, unto my last dying breath, I shall oppose this madness. I shall continue to speak out, whether on social media or from our stage in Allegiance on Bway, against the dangers of racial or religious profiling and its dehumanizing effect. Yours is the first step toward the destruction of all we hold dear, and to that I and all good people must say, "Never again, never again, never, never, never again.”
Washington Week:
Republican presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson compared potential#SyrianRefugees to "rabid dogs" while continuing to campaign against allowing any Syrian refugees to enter the United States because of the possibility of #ISIS terrorists posing as refugees. "We must balance safety against just being a humanitarian," Carson said during a campaign appearance in Alabama. "For example, if there is a rabid dog running around the neighborhood, you're probably not going to assume something good about that dog, and you're going to put your children out of the way. That doesn't mean that you hate all dogs."A beautiful example, here in this article, of what America stands for!
