A Comment from HSLDA…

Michael Farris from the Home School Legal Defense Association had this to say on Friday on Facebook,

“Today’s tragedy in Connecticut will be seen as an opportunity by many political interests to advance their viewpoints, especially those who want to ban private gun ownership.

I would hope that my fellow homeschoolers would resist any temptation to use this tragedy as a means of urging parents to change their educational choices.

All parents need to stand beside these parents in their grief and do only one thing, support them in love as best we can. All educators need to stand beside these educators in their grief and pray for them as we would want them to pray for us.

Today is not a day to point fingers. Today is a day to hold our brothers and sisters by the hand and say loudly, “Your loss is our loss. Your pain is our pain.”

To this I add my thoughts,

Gun control is not the answer.

Homeschool is not the answer.

Hatred is not the answer.

God’s love shown through us is the answer.

“Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord, is the rock eternal.”  (Isaiah 26:4)
