        These stories are why we need to hold our leaders to a higher standard. These are why they must not be allowed to speak hate. Small steps can lead to vast amounts of death and suffering. Regardless of views, hate must not be allowed to speak freely.

        That was horrific....i could feel the pain in the story. This is what tribal,ethnic,religion n even racism can do to any nation. Are we really different as humans?.

        "You might feel there is no end to this dark tunnel you're walking in. But please be hopeful. One day, you'll see the light at the end of it" Violence drags a person into the dungeons of fear, insecurity and despair. It not only hauls the person but his/her soul withers away.
