"Of All Commandments: Sitting Beside My Neighbor"

"When I scroll through radio stations, I hear Rush Limbaugh arguing that if schools weren’t gun-free 'liberal utopias,' that if more people were armed to the tooth and ready to kill, we’d be safer. It’s redundant and exhausting, at this point, to even argue with what these men are saying. Their argument isn’t safe, it isn’t pro-life, and it doesn’t reflect any kind of Christianity that I’ve ever known."

This piece, where I found the quotation above, speaks to me. Teaching is about relationships, about trust, about working with others to make the world better. This writer gets it--and how sad it is that some people believe guns need to be part of that process.
