Martin Luther King Jr. -reading response #1

I think it sucks that MLKJ sucks up to the clergy, even thought he is one himself. We shouldn't descrimante against other people or judge everyone, we should all be treated equal. I thought it was really cool that MLKJ was patient with the whole ordeal. He didn't go burning down buildings or shoot someone, he tried to get rid of segregation by simply doing it the politicial way; by holding speeches and talking in crowds in the streets. Nothing major, he could have done a bomb threat, but he knew that wouldn't get them anywhere. Overall I think MLKJ is a very classy man with a lot of self respect. We shouldn't be treated different no matter the sercumstances: black, white, woman, man, retarted, or smart; it really isn't necessary. If someone is mean to another person, they will get theirs later in this lifetime or the next.
