The statement is a political endorsement and critique, addressing public issues such as law enforcement, immigration, and drug trafficking. It supports a specific candidate, Dave Sunday, for his stance on these issues, suggesting he will actively enforce laws rather than 'make them up.' The statement also includes charged language regarding 'illegal immigrants' and 'deadly drugs pouring into Pennsylvania cities,' framing these as significant threats.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement uses charged language that could contribute to fear and division, particularly the phrases 'illegal immigrants overrun our cities' and 'deadly drugs pour into our cities.' This could be seen as harmful, especially to immigrant communities. [-2]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement does not respect the dignity of all individuals, particularly immigrants, by using language that could be considered dehumanizing or fear-inducing. [-2]
  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement does not promote understanding, empathy, or compassion, especially towards immigrants. It frames them primarily as a threat, which could exacerbate tensions and misunderstandings. [-2]
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    While the statement engages in a form of criticism against current or past attorneys general, it borders on personal attacks by suggesting they 'make up' laws, which could undermine constructive dialogue. [-1]
  5. Principle 6:
    I will use my influence for the betterment of society.
    The statement aims to use influence to promote a candidate believed to better society by enforcing laws strictly. However, the divisive language used may detract from this goal.
