This Martin Luther King Jr day: Call to the President for non-violence!

Martin Luther King Jr knew as all the great teachers knew that non-violence is the only choice.

The men and women that marched with him knew that it is better to be ripped apart by dogs and sprayed with fire hoses. To have your life threaten and even taken but to never respond with violence.

We need to live by the example of MLK of Jesus of Buddha of Muhammad of Lao Zho of Ghandi. We must choose peace and non-violence. I can think of no better way of honoring their memory. The time is now to declare peace and bring home our troops!
