Don't argue and guess. Check out his own words!
The time to heed Dr King's message is long overdue!
"The past is prophetic in that it asserts loudly that wars are poor chisels for carving out peaceful tomorrows.
One day we must come to see that peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.
We must pursue peaceful ends through peaceful means.
How much longer must we play at deadly war games before we heed the plaintive pleas of the unnumbered dead and maimed of past wars?
Why can't we at long last grow up, and take off our blindfolds, chart new courses, put our hands to the rudder and set sail for the distant destination, the port city of peace?"
