Hit 'Em!!!!

Just do it NONVIOLENTLY, will ya?!

""Ohio: Killing at Event Promoting Nonviolence.... A fatal shooting put a chilling end to a youth football tournament intended to promote nonviolence in Cincinnati neighborhoods. Earnest Crear, 19, was in a group of young adults gathered on a street near where spectators were watching the games Sunday when he was shot twice, officials said. The police said three suspects fled the scene. The children’s event, called the Peace Bowl, brought together 14 teams from youth organizations. Cecil Thomas, a city councilman who was at the games, said the Peace Bowl was intended to promote peace in city neighborhoods with athletic competition and family involvement (AP)."

Is it just me, reader, or does anyone else find it strange and ironic that NONVIOLENCE is being promoted at a FOOTBALL game?

Too bad for Mr. Crear!

Looks like his GAME of LIFE ended in SUDDEN DEATH (with no overtime)!!

Competition does not equal Cooperation, and thus NO PEACE!
