$\small\color{olive}{There's \: the \: political \: sphere, \: social \: unrest, \: injustice, \: the \: craziness \: that} \\ \small\color{olive}{goes \: on \: social \: media \: that \: seems \: just \: stir \: that \: pot \: and \: make \: it \: even \: worse \: in \: some \: cases.} \\ \\ \small\color{olive}{Then, \: you've \: got \: kind \: of \: a \: more \: personal \: level \: where \: you \: see \: your \: students, \: your \: friends} \\ \small\color{olive}{your \: community, \: or \: even \: yourself \: going \: through \: these \: heartaches, \: and \: griefs, \: and \: these \: big \: challenges.}$

$\small\color{olive}{in \: the \: United \: States \: and \: the \: world \: evil \: is \: in \: power. \: It \: is \: time \: we \: face \: that} \\\small\color{olive}{fact \: and \: decide \: how \: we \: will \: respond \: if \: and \: when \: we \: are \: called \: upon \: to \: do \: so.} \\ \small\color{olive}{I \: see \: it \: as my \: job \: to \: raise \: awareness \: of \: the \: times \: in \: which \: we \: live. \: Lawmakers \: are \: not \: listening \: to \: us.} \\ \small\color{olive}{Judges \: are \: not \: listening \: to \: us. \: Innocent \: people \: are \: going \: to \: death \: row \: and/or \: suffering \: the \: horrors} \\ \small\color{olive}{of \: life \: behind \: bars \: without \: the \: possibility \: of \: parole \: - \: many \: of \: them \: in \: solitary \: confinement.}$

$\small\color{olive}{The \: process \: of \: finding \: a \: death \: qualified \: jury, \: by \: the \: nature \: of \: the \: goal, \: unfairly \: excludes \: people \: of \: faith \: who} \\ \small\color{olive}{take \: seriously \: and \: refuse, \: no \: matter \: the \: crime, \: to \: set \: aside \: the \: Holy \: Commandment \: “Thou \: shalt \: not \: kill.”} \\ \small\color{olive}{ Irregardless \: of \: the \: circumstances \: these \: people \: recognize \: the \: sovereignty \: of \: the \: God \: who \: gave \: that \: command. \: But \: people \: who \: refuse} \\ \small\color{olive}{to \: play \: God \: belong \: on \: juries \: for \: they \: have \: not \: lost \: faith \: in \: redemption. \: Call \: it \: civil \: disobedience. \: Call \: it \: a \: form \: of \: jury \: nullification} \\ \small\color{olive}{if \: you \: will: \: if \: asked \: to \: serve \: on \: a \: jury \: where \: the \: ultimate \: punishment \: is \: possible, \: we \: must \: all \: become \: “death \: qualified.”} \\ \small\color{olive}{At \: present, \: there \: really \: is \: no \: other way. \: The \: buck, \: for \: now, \: stops \: with \: us.}$

$\small\color{olive}{More \: Americans \: are \: beginning \: to \: feel, \: like \: the \: soldiers \: in \: Iraq, \: that \: something \: is \: terribly \: wrong, \: that \: this \: is \: not} \\ \small\color{olive}{what \: we \: want \: our \: country \: to be. \: It \: sucked, \: even \: in \: countries \: that \: the \: Germans \: were \: merely \: occupying \: rather \: than} \\ \small\color{olive}{trying \: to \: turn \: into \: permanent \: parts \: of \: the \: Reich. \: Some \: countries \: like \: Norway, \: Holland, \: Denmark, \: France \: and \: Belgium \: had \: an} \\ \small\color{olive}{easier \: time \: than \: Poland \: and \: the \: USSR \: overrun \: by \: the \: Germans. \: In \: the \: latter \: countries \: the \: citizenry \: survived} \\ \small\color{olive}{on \: very \: low \: calories, \: driving \: the \: black \: market \: which \: only \: a \: priviledged \: few \: could \: participate \: in.}$
