@chicagosmayor I think we need to better understand how the law and the jury system is manipulated in service of everything but justice and surely not honoring the sanctity of human life… as in all lives, not just some. This verdict is an abomination.

@DalaiLama I think anger another aspect of anger and aggression stems from fear. Compassion for the other helps immensely.

Anger and aggression sometimes seem to be protective because they bring energy to bear on a particular situation, but what needs to be acknowledged is that that energy is blind. It takes a calm mind to be able to consider things from different angles and points of view.

@DalaiLama This is what is playing put in Afghanistan on a very human level. It is the still, small light in the dark.

It can sometimes seem as if one person will not be very effective. However, change in the world always begins with an individual who shares what he or she has learned and passes it on to others.

We believe #OurOneJob is to protect Illinois children from the gun injuries that are their leading cause of death. Contact the Governor's Office now to let him know you feel the same. twitter.com/shannonrwatts/…

Shame on @GovRauner! This bill would have helped slow gun violence in Chicago propagated by bad apple gun dealers that, in particular, impacts black & brown communities. Tell friends and family in Illinois to let Gov Rauner know they won't forget: www2.illinois.gov/gov/contactus/… #twill twitter.com/TinaSfon/statu…

Police Supt. Eddie Johnson says civilians setting policy for CPD is “like telling a surgeon how to do his business..” Says public should have some input, but, “They don’t have the professional acumen to develop policy and strategy. It’s just crazy to me.”

Here in Illinois, we license cigar shops, liquor shops and barber shops. We now have a chance—if the Governor would sign the bill—to license gun dealerships. All eyes are on @GovRauner. #SignSB1657 @NoGunViolence

In today’s materialistic world there is a risk of people becoming slaves to money, as though they were simply cogs in a huge money-making machine. This does nothing for human dignity, freedom, and genuine well-being. Wealth should serve humanity, and not the other way around.
