Are you afraid to go out you’re door? Does the
sound of a siren scare you when your outside
or inside your home.
Every time there’s a school shooting. Is home
schooling the first thing that comes to mind.

Violence has been around since the beginning of
man and woman. We feed on the concept through
sports, video games, gangsters movies that glorified
it. Even horror movies with flesh eating zombies have
made millions of dollars.
So where do we draw the line between real violence
and what Hollywood shows us?

The image of killing is more in our faces than ever before.
Through our advancement of technology we can witness
it faster when it happens. We see it face to face in our daily
lives every time you pick up a newspaper. It seems some
is being murder somewhere.D88A2595-AC7A-496E-BE16-A63A6701848C.jpeg

A powerful tool it is that has kept people of color and women down
to afraid to speak out. Black males in the South were victims of several
lynchings in the southern part of the United States. Women being order
and told to stay in their place by verbal, sometimes physical violence.

The take over of Nazis, people put in concentration camps.
Women and children put in gas chambers like cattle. What a
aggressive bloody history we have. It’s a fire we can’t seem to put
out, or don’t want to. Muhammad Ali was stripped of his title because
of his religion and views of the war. While in the great United States of
America in Louisville he was considered to be a second class citizen.
I guess the gold medal he won in the Olympics was only worth the parade.
After that. Get back in you’re place boy!

This never ending trend has done nothing but continue
to cause pain,death of the innocent and poor who are already
suffering. When you look at history it is man who’s has
glorified using force to get what ever he wants no matter
what gets destroyed along the way.

What about female gangs? What about them? Women
earlier in history before gangs weren’t the ones who
wanted to charge into Battle for the thrill of conquering
other parts of the world. Man did that! Women have
become sometimes violent and cold by example.

My father when he was alive would often talk about
how this planets history would have been if women
were in charge. would there have been lynching? concentration
camps, would the educational system not be so one sided? would
there have been such racial hate, l think not even though l can’t
prove it. Yes l know there are probably a few white women
in parts of the United States that still have those feelings and stereotypes.
Hate is taught to children they are not born with it or the appetite
for world domination and distruction.

Let’s get back to history. Many of great women have done
great things and accomplishments with nonviolence.
Using the power of love, passion and intelligence. To
cherish life and help it grow has always been the womans philosophy
more so than the man’s.

Women are mostly kind, generous, thoughtful and
let’s not forget nurturing . It’s good to see that more
Father’s are starting to be that way too. It’s
important for young males to see that in their
Father’s.

Stop the destruction or
destroy the world.

Thank you fardin88

There is good and bad everywhere you turn. I think that this will always be.
It is the nature of life.
We are taught hate, showed fear and have to learn to deal with it.
Don't sit behind your locked door ! Go change the world.
Yes YOU , You can change the world or at least The world around you. Go help a stranger or a person in need. Spread the Love. It's the one thing that CAN change our world is LOVE for one another and always smile. A smile can help brighten someone's life and may even change there whole day. Give it a try and you too will see.

It is going to take constant acts of love to fight never ending hate. I truly believe smiles are good
medicine for the heart and soul. I have been smiling at people since l was two years old. My mom told
me. l would wake up in the morning singing with a grin on my face. Also when she took me places with
her l would walk up to women with a high voice and say your pretty! Wide smile and all. Thank you kandywriter for you’re support.

Oh your Welcome @luckyfellow . To smile at someone is contagious and they can not help but to smile back. I love to do it at stores to strangers and those who look down, It brightens there day. Have a Blessed Day.

It seems to me that in the first place we need to start with yourself! Pay attention to how many negative thoughts, anger, hatred for the world around us we feel! Aggression always causes aggression! If we try to change is our thinking, get rid of the negative, try to change your inner world, then the world around you will also change!

Like the man in the mirror. That is so true.
