"Martin Luther King Jr. was photographed by Alabama cops following his February 1956 arrest during the Montgomery bus boycott. The historic mug shot, taken when King was 27, was discovered in July 2004 by a deputy cleaning out a Montgomery County Sheriff's Department storage room. It is unclear when the notations 'DEAD' and '4-4-68' were written on the picture."


"I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant."

Nobel Peace Prize Acceptance Speech, Dec. 10, 1964

1. Peace be upon you Hissyspit

(I'm not Muslim, nor Christian, for that matter. But peace be upon you.)

I kind of wish I knew your real name, but I won't ask you. :)

2. Thank you, Syrinx. Peace to you, as well.

I am without religion. And my first name is the same as a golden age of Hollywood actor. (You can always PM me.)
