I want you to read these two quotes in light of the recent tragedy Mr. Gill chose to unleash at Dawson College:
“Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.” – Benjamin Franklin
“The right local questions and answers will be the right global ones.” Wendell Berry - Sex, Economy, Freedom and Community.
Cowardice – to all those who choose to respond to this horror and tragedy through the detached strategies of public policy and institutional reform. Cowards are those who think that these ‘situations’ can be addressed by stricter gun control or fortressing public institutions.
This is not meant to sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger…
It is time that we all learn to live with danger as our neighbour. It is time that our neighbour ceased to be dangerous to us.
