The Islamic Society of Corona-Norco (yet again) unreservedly condemns the senseless violence in Colorado and grieves with the nation the loss of innocent lives. We join people of all faiths, traditions, race and ethnicity in upholding life and abhorring death and destruction committed by anyone and anywhere. We pray that our nation does not become numb to the frequent acts of senseless violence resulting in deep grief for the victims, survivors and their families. We call upon the political leadership of all persuasions and remind them of their primary responsibility to legislate laws that protect the people they have pledged to serve.
The Islamic Society of Corona-Norco along with its leadership and membership is committed to do all that it can to educate, empower and mobilize our community in fostering mutual love and respect for all people in our neighborhood and in our city. We pray to the Most Merciful God, the One Creator of all of humanity, to grant much patience and comfort to the families of those who were killed in Colorado and Atlanta and (unfortunately) all over the nation.
