Monday Musing – Not a Partisan Issue

I’ll keep this musing short and to the point:

Stop pointing fingers
and DO something!

For the love of God, this isn’t a democrat versus republican issue!!! I don’t give a crap about who was to blame in the PAST… we are ALL to blame right freaking NOW if you don’t stop your useless party line bickering and acknowledge the human rights violations that we are not only condoning but actively and “proudly” implementing on our soil in the name of a law our nation created and our nation can change.

So by all means, keep pointing fingers at the past, meanwhile it repeats itself in our present with countless lives impacted and us “safe” behind a computer screen. You don’t trust the news? Then get out there and see it for yourself, then come back with an opinion. Until then anything you say or post about “this is blah blah blah’s law” or “He’s just enforcing your law” is just parroting and useless to those in real peril at our borders at our hands.

Step away from the like button and do something useful like volunteer because like it or not these are real people in real pain and we are called to love and aid to our neighbor and brother regardless of your political platform.

“I used to think you had to be special for God to use you, but now I know you simply need to say yes.”
“You don’t need a plan; you just need to be present.”
“That’s because love is never stationary. In the end, love doesn’t just keep thinking about it or keep planning for it. Simply put: love does.”
