Peace Petition

A great tragedy has befallen our nation. A catastrophe that leaves none of our lives untouched. Many innocent lives were lost due to a senseless act of terror and violence. Although this horrific event has outraged many, and rightly so, it cannot be justified or corrected through more violence. Another senseless act in retaliation will not repair the damage done, nor bring back those who were lost. It will only perpetuate a violent, barbaric cycle fueled by hatred and ignorance. The perpetrators of these crimes must be caught and brought to justice, but without the continued loss of innocent life. President Bush, We the undersigned encourage you to take responsible, peaceful action in bringing the terrorists to justice. Please seriously consider the negative ramifications of continued killing and perpetuating the cycle of violence. Although many lives have already been lost, MANY MORE CAN STILL BE SAVED.
