14. I was just talking about this, They wake up to hate

And it brews all day long. It’s sad that is all they crave. It feeds their lost souls.

There is an intolerant “preacher” who has been following the Walk for Peace, since GA. He has a loud speaker and signs like the Westbrook kooks he carries as well. He is extremely rude, disrespectful of the Venerable Monks. The Spiritual Leader Pannakara does not engage with him, even though he has tried. Pannakara has even offered him a flower and he will not accept it.

But the Venerable Monks are drawing 10s of thousands of people to greet them on their journey, during sub freezing conditions. The roads are lined with people all walks of life, offering flowers, hand warmers, lip balm, etc. The Enforcers have been providing escorts throughout the south on their journey to DC.
