While watching the news on TV a few days ago, I saw the pained faces of two mothers who had recently lost youngsters to gang violence in Newark. What a terrible tragedy! They spoke about wanting to motivate other moms to stand with them against those who have such little regard for human life.
I think the time has come for mothers to use the enormous political power they could have in a world that has gone mad. Inspired by their mother’s love, they should organize against the gun lobby that assures a steady supply of guns to the street…or any testosterone-fueled special interest group that all too easily trades precious lives for business objectives.
Frankly, this world needs a hell of a lot more estrogen than it is getting and it can only come from one place.
