Peace Keepers

Comment Up

The Mayor of Riviera Beach, Thomas Masters, brought up The Peace Keepers at yesterday's Sister Cities meeting and invited all of us to visit its web site.  He mentioned Trayvon Martin and at that very moment he spoke the name, the lights went out in the room. No joke! I was wondering if it was an omen.

The Peace Keepers, founded by a black Muslim, have a global initiative that speaks to peace, love and unity in a community that is plagued by crime and gun violence.  They want to establish new rules of conduct and behavior in the community by which young people can be governed; they want all communities to be safe; and believe that by behavior change, our neighborhoods can be safe.

maybe this man is walking proof that there are some peace loving Muslims. It's hard to imagine though.

if you are a Muslim and you follow the Koran....there is no peace.
there are moderates who don't follow the Koran...But they are not considered true Muslims

True Muslims follow the Koran and Sharia Law.......and thats FAR from peaceful
