Hate always hurts the hater. 

Sometimes By Franklin Price 6/19/2016 Sometimes you know we've gone astray That's right, you and I You know we'll do it more than once Again before we die Opinions by another May give us room for thought If hate's included in it In the end it is for naught For history shows that hating Is not where our minds should be Especially in the U.S.A. The land for all and for the free All are created equal It's what our founders had to say With rights to make decisions To decide which is the way Thinking hateful of another Or a people as a mass Makes us less the person we should be Something of a pompous ass The killings and the massacres By radicals, future, past Are not about religions But by people holding fast Hating others just because They don't believe as you And think that they are better dead The Muslim, Christian, Jew To rid the world of radicals That exist there in all three Need all to work together To make a safer world for you and me
