Issue 615 The Orange Ribbon June 18, 2015

I was listening to the Glenn Beck Radio program when he took a call from a woman named Nancy of South Carolina.  She had an idea.  Let us discuss.


The idea:  Nancy had heard Glenn talking about the current massacres over in Syria, and other parts of the Middle East by ISIS/ISIL.  She said she felt like she could do nothing about this and wanted to at least try to bring awareness to not just the persecuted Jews, but the Christians and others throughout the world.  As such, she proposed an Orange Ribbon to represent all the persecuted people throughout the world and the biblical figure Daniel who was persecuted, but saved through prayer.  I personally believe that that this is a great idea.  A visual representation of people who wish to stop persecution that can be used to show solidarity.


Conclusion:  This is a great idea.  Though people may not like the fact that it represents in part a Biblical figure.  However, Beck seems to have evolved this idea into his recent "Never Again is Now" campaign to raise awareness of persecution, and to have the American people remember that racial discrimination, violence against others here in the States, and then abroad should never happen again. So let us show our support for the victims and to speak for those who fear to speak.
