If you think John Hancock is guilty of the rumor nonsense--not to mention that he was in any way complicit for Tom Schweich's death--since I still like and respect John very much, would you kindly click "unfriend," unfollow, or whatever the case may be. Enough.

Continuing to vilify someone like John Hancock with no proof except the words of people who don't like him is a horrible example for us as Christians. Danforth's affable, encouraging email to John Hancock doesn't make any sense when you think about his selfish rant on a day that a good man like Tom should have been memorialized.

I can't wait till this political news cycle changes.

We all fall short.
