Liberal Librarian...so wise.

I will stake my flag here. Making an informed decision is better than reacting blindly from preconceived notions. Helping others is better than hoarding selfishly. Greed is not good, but the source of many of our evils. Empathy for the other does not make you weak or a traitor, but unleashes the best of what being human is. And choosing mean-spiritedness and close-mindedness does not indicate strength, but is a clarion call of weakness...

You can't take away our dignity!
