The memorial wall for all the youth killed in the UK from gang violence in the past ten years look likes the memorial wall for all the youth killed at a local highschool around here for the same ten years.....

I think the point in my above lament is that hatred only brings about the city I live in, a fucking literal warzone. you have to live in love, not hatred. hatred kills. the gift of love is life.
