- How can we stop all this fighting and violence to make this world a safer place and not be against races so we can be how Jesus wants us to be as one big happy nation?

- What can we do to bring attention to the truth about the existence and ugliness of racism in our county and the silent majority of those who benefit?

- Sheriff Christ Swanson (Flint?) organized a "walk-parade" where the entire community walked along WITH officers, not in protest but a joint partnership and show of unity.
