Show Page 2 Salina Sun Wednesday. October 2. 1996 Citizens urged to "turn off' the violence by Jeannine Chisholm, New Horizons Volunteer Imagine what it would be like in a world without violence. Children would feel safe in their homes and schools. Shelters for battered women would close. There would be no teenagers joining gangs or using drugs. Domestic violence, child abuse, gun violence and sexual assault would be unheard of. the YWCA Week October Without Violence will challenge all America to, live for a week without committing, condoning or contributing to violence. New Horizons Crisis Center is asking the residents of the five county area to join them as they support this program and take a small step in making the vision of the world without violence a reality. Crime and violence are the biggest problems facing our country today. 1.3 million children are sexually abused each year; 700,000 women are assaulted; and in 1995, 6.2 million men were victims of violent crime. We are all influenced by violence. We view violence in our homes for entertainment, read about it in the news and pay to see it in the theaters. Our children can play with violent toys and video games at home and then face the real threat of gangs and guns in school. It is difficult to escape the influence of violence in our society today. But there is hope. Last week, Lynda Whitlock, Director of New Horizons Crisis Center and 1, Chair of the Advisory Council of the Utah Domestic Violence Coalition presented YWCA Week Without Violence buttons to the members of D.V. coalition the local, with the challenge to Turn Off the violence in their lives for at least one week. Each member of the coalition will be wearing the Week Without Violence buttons as a sign that they have accepted the challenge to remind others to do likewise. Lets all take the opportunity to stand back for one week to examine our own behavior and habits. We may be surprised by how much violence is in our lives. Some ways to turn off the violence are: examine your own violent behaviors, tendencies and habits. Be slow to anger, slow to accuse, quick to tolerate. Dont hit your kids, spouse or anyone else. Dont watch or pay to watch violent TV shows, films or videos. Dont use violent terms in your daily speech. Dont allow children to play with violent toys. Dont allow your children to play violent video games. Be responsible for your actions. Treat others as you want to be treated. Forgive your enemies. ty September 20, 1996 September 24, 1996 HOLMES, Brice W, 29, of RichMECHAM, Issac Jesse, 18, field was arrested on two warrants of Salina was arrested on a warrant of of arrest. arrest.
