Jo Cox
Only the likes of Jo Cox, British member of parliament, human rights worker, advocate for immigrants and refugees.
Never the likes of a Robert Mugabe.
Only 49 people innocently partying at an Orlando night spot.
Never people at a KKK rally.
Only peacemakers like Yitzhak Rabin.
Never monsters like Bashar Assad.
Always the Bhuttos. Never the Musharrafs.
Only the Sadats. Never the al-Sisis.
Always the Boris Nemtsovs. Never the Vladimir Putins.
Only the JFKs, RFKs, MLKs. Never the Erdogans, Maduros, Nkurunzizas.
Why? Hating the bad is characteristic of rationality. Hating the good, of irrationality.
