What does it mean to YOU!!!

Tinacho has kindly shed some light on the meaning and examples of genocide. I find it difficult to say the word (genocide) without feeling a little upset at myself. The fact that this word has existed and is allowed to prevail in all of our tongues is not only sicking but frightening.

To imagine that there is evil and destruction, yet I sit and do nothing is evil itself. I am evil. I cannot stand and allow such malicious acts to be carried on any longer. I wish that i can make a stand, but my voice , although it is a single voice, is POWERFUL when it is matched with yours. So I challenge you...I'm sorry.. I pray and ask of YOU!!! TO DO SOMETHING...To make your life equal to those in Burma, to those in Bosnia, to those in Darfur, and those in the Congo and say NEVER AGAIN!! and when you say it.. I want you to mean it.

I make this promise: I will become a peaceful civilian and fight against genocide. I will write to the congressman in RI and in my state of NJ and call for action.

Dear Masterpeace, I wouldn't go as far as calling you a murderer. After all, our knowledge of the outside world can sometimes be skewed by other factors. The key issue is to act once you become aware of the gravity of this situation. I appreciate your promise to contact your representative. Congress only moves to the beat of the Constitients.
