Violent Retribution Will Make Things Worse!

There have been several stories that have made the news from around the country with blacks engaging in violence in name of Trayvon Martin.

The perpetrators of these acts of violence are wrong and I perceive their hearts to not be right with God. Their responses are not a reflection of Christianity, the Civil Rights Movement, and are not condoned by the victim's family in the least bit.

When the law catches up with the perpetrators, they will be without much defense and their lives will be forever changed over a few moments where they let their emotions control their sense of civility.

May God allow for the victims to make a full and speedy recovery and for their communities to not become consumed with racial tension.

Amen to that! We don't need a rerun of 1992. There are still 22 unsolved murders from the Rodney King riots.
