Tentacruel Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 I agree, he was a very great man, but as morbid and sad as this may sound, the reason we have off school is because of the guy that shot him. *Shudders* Anyway, I think it's safe to say his IQ was a few points above most people.

GHawk Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 This guy is really nice. Had a heart to heart with him a couple years back. It was really weird though, everytime I said something his reply was "U got any fried chicken or kool-aid?" And anything was I could out way this guy was black. I thought they were all out doors pickin cotton or something. Overall it was a strange experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Progress had already been made and continued to be made on account of the unjustified actions done before MLK had been shot. They probably facilitated the process, but change was imminent in the near future whether he was shot or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacoby746 Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 We had to go to school on MLK day for a snow make up day. Now the NAACP is really mad and wants to get all events banned from the city because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
