It makes me sick that slowly it is becoming clear that there is no "safe" place. For unknown reasons hate has entered marathons, movie theaters, and even elementary schools. It's beyond heartbreaking that such a horrendous act of evil can be thought out and implemented during such a joyous and non-political, non-religious, non-exclusionary event.
Luckily there is always good, always always good. And some random man's words have been shared numerous times on Facebook and I'll share them again on here:
"But the vast majority stands against that darkness and, like white blood cells attacking a virus, they dilute and weaken and eventually wash away the evil doers and, more importantly, the damage they wreak. This is beyond religion or creed or nation. We would not be here if humanity were inherently evil. We'd have eaten ourselves alive long ago.
So when you spot violence, or bigotry, or intolerance or fear or just garden-variety misogyny, hatred or ignorance, just look it in the eye and think, "The good outnumber you, and we always will."
