I'm fearful, in all honesty, because I know how rapidly things can escalate when irrationality and confusion are the driving forces behind a group of people desperate for purpose and direction.
But I think we should also fight fear, and the bigotry with which it manifests itself.
Very true. There's a lot of horror in this world, and we can't defeat it if we're shackled by fear, bigotry and ignorance.
I feel very sorry for this gentleman's family, who have to deal with the painful senselessness of his loss of life.
