World message to Donald Trump

With the Muslim ban, Trump's Presidency is beginning to look bleak. In response I wrote this little song as a reminder of what it means to be civilised, based on the United Nation’s Declaration of Human Rights. Everyone is born free equal rights and dignity Entitled to their freedom right to live as a person No-one shall be in slavery or tortured for their liberty The law protects your privacy innocent before guilty So don't assault, arrest, detain, persecute or make false claim You have the right to come and go, have the right to your own home Yet retain your nationhood, conscious thought and your selfhood ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There's now over 5 million (and rising each second) that have signed the open letter to Trump at https://secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/president_trump_letter_sgn1/ Dear Mr. Trump, This is not what greatness looks like. The world rejects your fear, hate-mongering, and bigotry. We reject your support for torture, your calls for murdering civilians, and your general encouragement of violence. We reject your denigration of women, Muslims, Mexicans, and millions of others who don’t look like you, talk like you, or pray to the same god as you. Facing your fear we choose compassion. Hearing your despair we choose hope. Seeing your ignorance we choose understanding. As citizens of the world, we stand united against your brand of division. Sincerely,

:blush: :scream: :smirk: :smiley: :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: :rage: :disappointed: :sob: :kissing_heart: :wink: :pensive: :confounded: :flushed: :relaxed: :mask: :heart: :broken_heart: :expressionless: :sweat: :weary: :triumph: :cry: :sleepy:
