My latest with David Noll, this time in The American Prospect. Here, we build on and extend ideas developed in our new book, Vigilante Nation, to show how even the Bluest of states are feeling the punishing effects of Red state vigilantism.

Join me in an amazing discussion with Mark Hugentobler about how and when people really change. Mark has spent years working within the State Prison system and designing programs that are transforming lives. His new book, "All My Friends Are Felons," contains the insights and lessons he has learned that not only are keys for felons but for all people! #craftingameaningfullife #ONENESS https://lnkd.in/gxF4N3eK https://lnkd.in/gUARhkcm

Three “Election Integrity” Trilogies to Save America from Tyranny 1.?Dr. Paper’s (People-Paper-Programs) 2. God’s (If-And-With) 3. Citizens’ (Prayer-Discernment-ACTION) America shall be saved from tyranny if all three trilogies are in harmony with each other with God’s trilogy at the center guiding the other two. ? God’s (If-And-With) IF the community, THE FORCE looks to the community’s “North Star” (God’s Will) to guide its actions, ? AND the community’s “Thought Magnet” (In God We Trust) to mold its thought pattern, ? WITH excellent leadership by the mayor and council, America shall remain free from tyranny. Two known communities are operating with THE FORCE effect... HVAC-P INDUSTRY THE FORCE (maximum benefits) in the HVACP industry consists of manufacturers, distributors, reps, and contractors with contractors as the governing body. CITIZENS of AMERICA THE FORCE (freedom restorer) in a non-violent freedom-loving society with a mayor and council as the governing body. https://lnkd.in/ggd4GAqf

So excited?to share that my newest book is out! Two Jews, three arguments – as the saying goes. But what kinds of topics have Jews disagreed about historically, in the present day, and potentially also in the future? Here we survey forty major controversies in Jewish culture, and present?how opposing sides have each laid out their arguments in good faith. Disagreements happen between people: Hillel vs. Shammai, Ayn Rand vs. Karl Marx, Tamar Ross vs. Judith Plaskow, Yitz Greenberg vs. Meir Kahane… but also Abraham vs. God, and God vs. the angels! Movements debate each other: Reform versus Orthodoxy, one- two- and zero-state solutions to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, gun rights versus gun control in the United States. The book doesn’t shy away from the fundamental questions of existence either. Is life about struggle or about peace? Should we focus on love based on emotions or love based on deeds? What is better: seeking absolute truth, or building compromise? Ultimately, what?is?the meaning of life? Here we present difficult and often heated disagreements with fairness and empathy, helping us consider our own truths in a pluralistic Jewish landscape. The intellectual pursuit here is to move away from absolutist approaches ("this is the only halacha" or "this is the principle value in all cases") and rather explore dialectical tensions between multiple values and approaches. You can order the book straight from the publisher Ben Yehuda Press: https://lnkd.in/g_T5BXGr Or on Amazon:?https://lnkd.in/gKS3Xcii

Beyond the uniform, the narrative also shifts to the personal realm, where the officer grapples with the complexities of citizenry. Facing the daunting Naxal challenge, the book delves into the relentless pursuit of internal security amidst systemic challenges. With candid insight, the author details the campaign for police reforms and their broader impact on society. Unforgettable Chapters is more than a memoirs; it’s a testament to the courage and resilience of those who dedicate their lives to the service of the nation. #UnforgettableChapters by Prakash Singh.
