When
someone is accused of wrong doing, it is the duty of every human to stand up
for them; ultimately everyone would be better off.

The ABC news has
messed up, “and issued a report Friday
suggesting that the horrific shooting at a Colorado movie theater was
perpetrated by a suspect with ties to the movement, the situation had a
familiar feel to it, tea party leaders say.”
messed up, “and issued a report Friday

familiar feel to it, tea party leaders say.”
Although the report may suit many who hate the politics of the Tea Party, but
speaking up against false suggestions is the right thing to do.
My
instant reaction smelled the wrongness of the suggestion that the murder was
linked to the Tea Party. I deliberated about the dangerous and sinister accusations
aggressively made against Muslims almost every week by the individuals
affiliated with the Tea Party, then a verse from Quraan popped in my ears, “don’t let your bias of others make
you unjust towards them”, bingo, I was back home with my original reaction. Justice
is the ultimate panacea to the ills of the society.

Here I
am calling on ABC News to give equal time to the tea party members to clarify
their position. Individuals may be wrong, but never a group of people.

I was
intrigued by Lu
Ann Busse’s statement, “There’s been repeated incidents where people have an
agenda to demonize a certain segment of the population, whether it is the tea
party or similar groups,” Busse said. “They try to use everything to demonize
and marginalize us, and I think it’s totally irresponsible and not the way
people should act.”

Indeed,
I am concerned about that statement, and ask Lu Ann Busse, who is currently
running for the Colorado House and a former Tea Party leader to join me in condemning similar statements
made by Tea party affiliated men and women like Michelle Bachman, Herman Cain, Sara
Palin and countless others for political gains.

We need to set the country on the right track by speaking up against wrong
doing, no matter who it is.
All it takes is one man to fix the ills of our society, and one man to mess it
up. I salute John McCain for speaking up against
Michelle Bachman, and appreciate all the sheep that jumped behind him like Ed
Rollins, John Boehner and a host of others.
I
am pleased to stand up for the Tea Party in this regard, and I have stood up
for everyone from Atheists to Zoroastrian and every one in between at http://standingupforothers.blogspot.com/
