It’s not just guns on our streets that’s the problem. Violence begins with violence in our hearts, violence in our speech, even violence in our thoughts. 2/4

Anything any of us can do on any given day to be gentler and more peaceful than we were the day before, is a step in the right direction. 3/4

And that's why man cannot rule himself. Adam and that damn "tree of knowledge of good and evil"... cursed us to try to do it alone, and we are failing. Only God can see who has violence in their heart, and we refuse to let him be in control. We cannot trust who his agents are.
