Paris attacks: respond with compassion
Respond to the terror attacks in Paris with mercy and compassion.
We stand in solidarity with the victims of terrorism in Paris, Beirut, Lebanon, Kenya, Nigeria and countless other places across the globe.
Because expanding war produces terror and creates terrorists, we demand compassion for refugees fleeing terrorism in their homeland.

Why is this important?
The devastating terrorist attacks in Paris are tragic and heartbreaking. Therefore, we resist the urge to respond by with more terror and tragedy. and move to respond, instead, with mercy and compassion.
Refugees in Paris fled their homeland to escape this very violence. Closing the borders will not harm terrorists, only those fleeing from terrorists. Civilians in Syria and elsewhere are suffering under ISIS. Bombing innocent civilians is exactly the act causing this outrage in the first place.
Violence, oppression and exploitation started this mess. War will not get us out. Instead, let's launch ground troops of compassion and launch a campaign to destroy poverty.
