Justice For All

so, 
can 
we hear 
loud "amens" 
for righteous judgment,  
standing for fairness and justice, 
for the dignity of men, women, and their children 
no matter what race, creed, gender, or nationality, for all people everywhere?

Yes, it would. But, keep in mind: "...peace on earth begins with you and me," right? So does justice and mercy and all the other most important virtues. Thanks, Kim.

A great poem, and it's my best subject to write about; for the good of all, regardless of gender or race, every citizen must be treated with fairness and justice. Thanks for sharing, Milton; I wish you an excellent time.

Thank you, Lasaad. I believe this message gets to every corner of this earth, over and over again, until it is assimilated into the mindset. Thanks for your thoughtful, meaningful response.
