I don't usually post things like graphic videos and horrific news, but I am all about outing the #TRUTH in situations. I think it is important for each of us to take a minute and put ourselves in the shoes of those who have been wronged, whether it is the brave men and women who serve in Law Enforcement, or the loved ones of those citizens tragically and unjustly killed. Only through discussion and understanding will there be justice and healing in these situations and all situations like them. Peace comes from within, it is a choice we make in each moment. #StoptheViolence #SeeOnlyLove
Martin Luther King's statement about the futility of violence. <3

I love the articulate wisdom of this statement by Dallas Chief of Police David Brown.:
“Police are guardians of this great democracy,”
“Freedom to protest, freedom of speech, freedom for expression — all freedoms we fight for with our lives. It’s what makes us who we are as Americans.”
“We risk our lives for those rights. We won’t militarize our policing standards.”
“We are not going to let a coward who would ambush police officers change our democracy,” he said during a press conference Friday morning. “We are not gonna do it. Our city, our country, is better than that.”
