CANACE News Advisory, 2120 hrs, April 28, 2008
Violence is easy, Peace requires Effort
Please…download and read the above document, then forward it to your friends, neighbours and local media outlets.
Perfectly sound. Historically proven. We live in a “I want what I want and I want it now…” society. As Mr. Mchale stated, for over 18 months the majority of folks in and around Caledonia and Deseronto have done and said nothing. But now, well now, they are getting riled up; so they want immediate results and violence is their tool. However, I am not going to criticize their efforts, although I abhor them. At least, at long last, they are taking action. Now all we have to do is refocus their efforts into productive, peaceful protests. Beth
