Are you pissed about the murder of Nick Berg? Me too. So is everybody I know (and yes, I mean everybody). So what do we do when we see evil of such a primal barbarian nature? What can you and I, common everyday people, possibly do? Alan at Command Post has the answer. Fight evil by strengthening the good.

Well, IÂ’ve decided what to make of it all, and what IÂ’m going to make is some good. Susan Tom is a hero Â… one of millions Â… waking each day with a commitment to make the lives of others better through love. Hers is an example to which humanity should aspire. So my response to the murder of Nick Berg and the inhumanity it represents is to use it as motivation to give to Susan Tom and the humanity she represents.

For the next three days, between the time stamp of this post and Midnight EDT Friday night, Michele and I will contribute all donations made to The Command Post PayPal account (the buttonÂ’s below this post and also over in the right-hand column) to the Tom Family Education Trust.

So far they've raised over $5,000 toward their goal of $10,000. Now THAT is a statement!

(Alan has a nice brief on Susan Tom at the post linked up top, as well as a collection of links about her and the Tom Family Education Trust.)
