When President Kennedy spoke those words at American University in June, 1963, he was concerned about nuclear war and the Soviet Union. Right now our foe is a virus. To pretend that it respects county lines, or whether our governor is "red" or "blue," is ridiculous. To deny that we share this planet with other countries is short-sighted and perhaps even fatal. Because we are all mortal.
I wonder if we all truly do cherish our children's futures. So many of those who bitch, moan and demand we REOPEN NOW claim to be "pro-life." Yet they are willing to accept a certain number of fatalities to end their own "oppression." If only they valued their neighbors -- whether they live next door or in the neighboring state -- as much as they claim to value the unborn.
Bravo! Well said!
