ACTIONS AND REACTIONS by Jim Redwine

ACTIONS AND REACTIONS

Dylan Roof attended a prayer meeting at the Charleston AME Church. He brought a gun. Twenty-one year old Caucasian Roof murdered nine praying African Americans. In the white heat of their grief, the victims’ families forgave Roof and prayed for his soul. The national media were shocked.

Twenty men died committing the murders of 9/11. The national media fanned the flames of revenge against unknown someones.

Reverend Clementa Pinkney, who was also an elected state representative, laid in state in the rotunda of the South Carolina State House. The church held worship services in which comfort for all and forgiveness for Roof were broadcast to the world. The church is universally admired for staying true to its charter. It is stronger now than it was before the killings. The church relied on its greatest strength, its philosophy.

America spent a year after 9/11 looking for someone to blame for our pain. Even though the killers had also killed themselves, the national media cried out for more. Our government responded with a war against Iraq and Saddam Hussein, neither of whom had any connection to 9/11. We have expended thousands of lives and killed thousands more while spending trillions of dollars creating implacable enemies for ourselves.

We did these acts in violation of our charter, i.e., The United States Constitution, which calls for justice, equality and due process, not random abuses of power.

The Charleston AME Church’s reaction reminded me of the lessons I learned as a child in my home church. Our church had a deacon and choir member who served as church treasurer. His wife and two children and he were long-time members. He embezzled church funds. My father and mother served with this person on the church board. The board voted to forgive the man and allow the whole family to remain in our church. Our church healed, grew and prospered. It is still strong today.

Churches and countries that violate their foundations are in peril. Perhaps we should look to the wisdom of the Charleston AME Church and into our national soul for our international relations.

Dr. Bucshon Praises Governor Pence’s Letter to President on EPA Regs

0

(WASHINGTON, DC) –Eighth District Congressman Larry Bucshon, M.D., member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, released the following statement praising Governor Mike Pence’s announcement that Indiana will not comply with the EPA’s Clean Power Plan in its current form.

 

“I echo Governor Pence’s concerns with the EPA’s proposed Clean Power Plan. These regulations will drastically impact our state’s coal industry and put at risk thousands of good-paying jobs and affordable energy on which our families and manufacturers rely. That’s why last year I personally invited President Obama and a senior EPA official to tour a Hoosier coal mine and meet with the hardworking miners that this plan will affect. This week, I’m supporting the “Ratepayer Protection Act,” which will halt these regulations and protect states, like Indiana, from being forced to implement a federal plan that will cause significant rate increases for residents. I applaud Governor Pence for taking a stand against this aggressive federal overreach by calling on the EPA to significantly change or rescind this plan.”

Pence Statement on Supreme Court’s Same-Sex Marriage Ruling

0

Indiana Governor Mike Pence today issued the following statement on the Supreme Court’s same-sex marriage ruling:

 

“Like many Hoosiers, I believe marriage is the union between one man and one woman, and I am disappointed that the Supreme Court failed to recognize the historic role of the states in setting marriage policy in this country. Nevertheless, our Administration will continue to uphold the rule of law and abide by the ruling of the Court in this case. Under our system of government, our citizens are free to disagree with decisions of the Supreme Court, but we are not free to disobey them. As we move forward as a state and a nation, Hoosiers may be assured that our Administration will respect the law and the dignity and worth of every Hoosier and every Hoosier family.”
