THOUGHTS - 07-13-16

Just watched the town hall on CNN. My heart is heavy! I know God will make a way. But doubt slips in because I'm asking myself why doesn't all parties have to make changes. When I would visit the detention centers, my heart ached seeing really intelligent boys housed like cattle. The politicians would rather spend more money on prisons owned by their friends than education. They treat young people the same way they treat the vets. If you have mental problems, it should be addressed. But it is so easier to move as far away from the inner city and feel no responsibility at all for the ills of the community. How are we claiming to be a Christian country and we in no way reflect Christ. IJS. What can we do NOW? Unset DAs, judges, politicians who are a part of the problem and provide no solutions. We have groom young people to fill future positions. We form committed to vet each of them And publish a quarterly report of their performance. Start petitions to impeach these guys who don't get it. I have tutored kids from various cultures. Each has desires to be successful. But we beat them down with so much rhetoric as adults. This must STOP. We need committees to rate other public servants such as teachers. If they are unproductive they must go! My son has had some good teachers but thereH are others who need to not be in the profession. They came for the money, was disappointed, and carry a chip on their shoulders. They have to go or change their dispositions. We need to be aware of who is in charge and hold them accountable.
