Dr. King: Nonviolence is the Most Powerful Weapon

OWS is about non violent protest. It is about your right and equal worth as a human. The same as with ML King.

The Tea Party is about real Americans wanting to own their America. It is not about the rights and equality of people. It is not a battle that can be won with non violence cos it is fighting for dominance.

The OWS folks keep telling us they are all about peaceful protests, but there are hundreds of video examples of them being much less than peaceful. You can't argue with what you see with your own eyes.

MLK was about total non-violence, and he got a lot done before somebody killed him. Gandi was also about total non-violence, and it worked for him and India.

Peace is the answer, not war.

give peace a chance.
eat flowers and kiss babies.

Same here...it's hard to get me inspired, but this short video is so excellent, I am inspired.

I agree about the "endless cycle of revenge"...God dang, I'm so sick of it! It's a useless way to live.

Thanks for your input Spitfire777!

I forgot to respond to your Tea Party comment.

I don't think you know any truth about the Tea Party...just what you've been told by other liberal/occupy types. I've actually gone to Tea Party rallies and talked with actual humans. They are good folks, who want to live in a peaceful, prosperous country/world. They definitely ARE concerned about rights and equality of all people! NOT racist, NOT violent, NOT irrationally angry and vicious, like so many of the Occupy folks I know and see. Do some REAL research...don't just listen to your "leaders". I can show you 100 videos of Occupy folks getting violent...doing outrageous things against innocent people. Can you show me any vids of Tea Party folks doing anything like that? NO.

The Tea Party wants a much smaller, less intrusive, less corrupt government. They want to return to the Constitution and the vision of the original framers/founders. ME TOO!

Do we humans really need a gigantic government involved in every aspect of our lives? I don't think so...

Hi Bluebird!

Did you watch this short video of MLK? No? Please take a few minutes and watch it.

MLK had a message of peace, that is indisputable. Did he "plagiarize" the message of peace?

Ignoring his message and attacking him personally is an often-used and VERY weak tactic, the infamous "ad hominum" attack...the weakest "argument" there is. Can you argue against the message he was trying to teach, without attacking the man?
