Your Content Goes Here Support freedom             To Whom It May Concern You do not know me  yet you sit in judgment of me  You have not visited my home  yet you condemn me for where I live You look at me with hatred filled eyes  yet you have not seen into my loving heart You want to destroy me  in the name of some misguided passion  yet you know nothing of the passions I feel You despise me for things circumstances and fate dictate yet you do not understand that these things  belong to a higher power and are not of my making You have categorized me and  associate me with those you choose to hate  yet you do not see my individualism and what  I may offer you I do not profess to know you, therefore,  I can not sit in judgment of you your judgment will come when  you stand before your higher power and account for the atrocities and pain you have inflicted on your fellow man I do not hate you or condemn you for your beliefs,  location or circumstances because  they may differ from my own in my eyes the true measure of a man are his actions  and for this alone I can and do condemn you.  If you must condemn me then  do it knowing who  I am and not just who you think I am. I am an American by birth and by choice We are a nation born into adversity it is what binds  us together, the fabric of our existence, it is what  makes us strong. Your senseless act has only succeeded in making us stronger and bringing us closer together. We are not just geography or a people.  We are an ideal that can not be destroyed. You may succeed in inflicting pain on us, destroy  everything that we hold dear even kill us,  but you will never destroy the ideal that is us. It will only be multiplied 20 fold and in the end you will only be a fly speck on humanity's backside.
