Calling for social injustice protests to remain peaceful amid a scourge of riots, destruction, and civil unrest, Hope for Prisoners founder Jon Ponder on Newsmax TV wants to see President Donald Trump to sit down to make a true American peace deal.

"There are a lot of people who are angry as situations that are taking place right now," Ponder told Saturday's "America Right Now." "But violence only begets more violence."
