Clever lead in to spot-on commentary. My friend went out to buy Goya beans in a show of support. Hopefully, the call for boycott will backfire on the PC Contingent. Well done. Cheers. LIZ

It seems to me the world attacks and discredits civic minded people, but requires them to be stand=offish and right wing, why is someone who cares for social reform a "communist", only the US considers it so in the western democratic world, I see so many derogatory articles here, even by Christians, who seem to be the worst. Beautifully written Sally, at least you understand, that a man is not judged by political leaning or leftishness, but the state of his heart. Well done, blessings, Roy (I have no leaning left or right.)

    Here in the United States we are fighting for our national sovereignty, Religious freedoms, rights for the unborn, bill of rights specifically the the rights of free speech and to bear arms. The progressive left are made up of atheists who want this country ruined. Now, many states have applauded and legalized abortion until birth. Most Christians here are right leaning and vote republican because of of the anti-God platform of the democrats. When it becomes moral, it is no longer political. Politics is just a name. It's now a battle between good and evil in the United States. I will always side with good, no matter what you call it.

    Our faith is in God, It?s not about countries, it seem to me you?re having a civil war, your eyes are rooted in pride, any country is not above God, ALL empires have fallen, the sin? They thought God was on their side, He?s on the side of righteousness, left, right or upside down, remember Israel His beloved, He scattered them to the compass.

    Our faith is in God, God favours righteousness Sally, not national pride, I?m not proud of Australia, but I love her, we don?t bear arms, no one has that right, ?he who lives by the sword dies by the sword? your country is destroying itself from the inside Sally. If you believe, Your country is Heaven. An everlasting country. Empires come and go.

    Yes, as I am the righteous of God because of Christ. Not on my own righteousness. I have none. I stand with the things of Christ, as do you, I'm sure. I leave with with this: ?Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless.
    Not to speak is to speak.
    Not to act is to act.?

    Although I am very kind and loving, I am outspoken. I feel that is one of the reasons God has interrupted my life; to send me in the direction of writing. I feel His presence on me in all that I do. Sal xo

    I domain own a gun personally. Jesus has proven himself to be my protector. I'm stating the overreach and destroying methodology of those who seek to take away a society that is not perfect but one that allows us religious freedom of worship. We are already seeing the removal of freedoms at every level here, tier by tir. Lawlessness is not Fods way and I'll not be part of it. My own city and ho,etown has succumbed to rioting. The Bible says to live in peace with all men if it depend on me. I can say it does in my small surroundings but city wide, it's not. I realize this is not my eternal home but it is my temporary home for now umtil the trumpet blast. It won't be much longer I hope. I've been able to share the gospel much lately despite being home so much. :) Blessings. Sal xo

    I?m not nationalistic, I realised awhile ago that if we rest in those things that are temporal we will be very disappointed, a majority of nations have had their moment in the sun, nationalism has caused far more wars than any anything else, and they all have had civil wars, internal destruction, how can I explain where I?ve journeyed, I love my country, but she?ll destroy herself from within, and possibly take other lands with her, the same

God is trying to free you from your national chains and free His children unto Himself, I am but a messenger, anyone with a gun, is potentially my murderer. Jesus knew the danger of bearing arms. I?m not against you, I?m on your side, and even if you consider me your enemy, I will still think the same. Bless you. Roy

    That?s right, let Him work it out, I certainly can?t, the world?s in a mess Sally, I never want to hurt anybody, my dear grandchild asked me yesterday, if my friends don?t want to live with God, will they go to hell? (I never said they?ll go to hell) I haven?t answered her yet, what do I tell her? Sweet Sally, that?s how grave it is, I?ll reply in due course. But I love you all dearly. Roy

This was a great read, Sis. Not sure if this was where you wanted me to read? Then first house we looked at in this area was shown to us with no lighting and at dusk. So not very viewable. We never bought it of course.

    Aw, how kind you are, dear Geoff. I read about this incident online, and was compelled to write this. The owner of Goya is a fine man and such a kimd outstanding Christian. I appreciate the support and for standing for righteousness with me. Sending you my best today as always and blessings in Christ,

That representative is just one who doesn't know what she thinks she does. But that doesn't stop her from stirring the pot. I enjoyed your informative essay, Sally. You give readers many valid, useful points. Of course the 'be nice' is a standout. If more people thought of others in the same way they think of themselves, just imagine how much nicer and calmer the world would be for all. Thanks for sharing--love the video, too.
Respectfully, Jan

Oh dear, I had not heard that about AOC. I would never boycott because of difference in political opinion. I think the world is asserting completely new vocabulary and that is hurting chances for communication.

Goya is doing extremely well, especially since the boycott because Americans have gotten behind them. Thank you for sharing this article. Yes, being kind to everybody is the key.

    Thank you, dear Barbara. Kindness is the rule in every area, and sometimes when speaking the truth we have to work harder in our presentation. Jesus said, speak the truth in love, and that our words should be gracious. I am outspoken and must temper myself with these words. It's not always easy....

Hi Sally, Well I don't know anything about the Goya products as they are not sold in Europe. In fact, I've never heard about them. So I will stick to your writing. It was catching and very well written. All best. Ella xxx

    Thanks for venturing over into this although you weren't in the know completely. I appreciate you, dear Ulla. We have many things going on here in America, and I long for the return to peace and civility. We are moving in the other direction here, unfortunately.

I'm with you. Love will conquer all, as corny as that may sound these days. Not romantic love, but love of one another. We have been buying Goya products, too. I hope that company flourishes despite the attack. Thank you for sharing this.

    Thank you, Yvonne. I know you are a peaceful person who loves God and nature. We agree on many levels. I'm glad to hear of your support of Goya. The CEO is a fine man and extremely kind and benevolent. He has sent tons of food to Venezuela, Cuba, and Puerto Rico. Thanks so much for coming in. Sending you my best today as always,

Really like what you had to say. We all need to get more love(through knowing Jesus), then share that love. Yes, we should all be respectful of everyone, even if we don't agree with them. Your piece puts it right out there. Bravo! Also liked the video.
