Title: Martin Luther King Day
Post by: ycartrob on Jan 21, 2008, 11:16 AM
Please take a moment, a minute, an hour, a day, a week, a month, a year, a lifetime, to reflect on Martin Luther King's work.

~ Peace ~

I don't think he would be too happy with the America of today, though.  

While every other country in the Western world is getting universal health care, the United States continues to squeeze the life out of the poor and underprivaleged by charging ridiculous amounts of insurance that only benefit the greedy ass CEO's and their best friends in congress.

Sorry, I just watched "Sicko" and I'm really angry.

While all my friends like him for getting them a day off of school, i actually respect him for what he did.

RIP dude

i would say one of my most memorable experience as a kid was going to Atlanta and seeing the church he preached at and MLK's memorial. i was only in the 3rd grade, but i'll never forget it.   thank you Marting Luther King.
