Mistakes We Have Made

We cannot abandon mistakes we have made. We cannot leave the scene of a tragedy. We cannot avert our eyes to the inhumane set of events put into motion before, during, and after September 11, 2001.


Yes, many of us protest against additional bloodshed. Many are arrested for doing so. These acts, while noble, are not enough. We must go out and work to wash the sins of our country and, barring success at that, make those most responsible pay dearly for what they have done. And while the innermost animal inside of me does indeed want to bring harm to men and women who propagate war, sectarianism, and hate- I know this way it cannot rightly be.
