The Value of Life.

Is one person's life more valuable than another's based upon their wealth, status, skin color, gender or religion?

As a collective, human beings never fail to answer YES to that question, over and over again.

Until there is a shift in our consciousness, where we are able to realize that every human life is valuable no matter what, senseless killing will continue in the name of those reasons, as it has since recorded time.

I'm not sure a shift is possible, but I hope so.
