Kindness and compassion towards life is how we heal the planet.
This does not mean we have to endlessly suffer their intolerance, or never punish the wicked and the greedy.
It means that when a tragedy befalls a problematic group of people, we empathize first and then after the immediate situation is adequately addressed, we demand accountability from everyone responsible.
