No person should be singled out or mistreated because

            of the color of their skin.  No person who respects law
            and  order  should  fear  harm  from  faulty  or  over-
            aggressive policing or mob violence.  No  person  should

            fear harassment simply for walking, or driving their car
            in  any  neighborhood,  or  be  overly  scrutinized  while

            innocently  shopping  in  a  store.  No  person  should  be
            judged, held accountable, or made to feel guilty for sins

            of generations long past.  No person should be targeted
            for vengeful acts because of sins from generations long

            past.

            Clearly, it is no longer tolerable for “racial” prejudice in
            any form to prey upon any person. Every life is sacred

            and  must  matter  because  every  life  matters  to  GOD.
            Any claims to the contrary are sins that can bring eternal

            judgement. Such thinking and behaviors fall far short of
            CHRIST’s commandments for faithful living.

            CHRIST  warned  us,  “But  I  say  to  you  that  whoever  is

            angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger
            of  the  judgment.  And  whoever  says  to  his  brother,

            ‘Raca!’  shall  be  in  danger  of  the  council.  But  whoever
            says,  ‘You  fool!’  shall  be  in  danger  of  hell  fire.”

            (Mat.5:21-22, NKJV).

            If  one  listens  carefully  to  heed  what  CHRIST  was
            teaching HIS followers, it is clear that HE was, not only,
