Personally I think the face has a oriental look to it that distracts me. I like the design and rock overall. I wonder why the media doesn't ever point out that MLK was a replublican?

To do so would not fit with the "template".

To me, it is a piece of Heroic Stalinist/Maoist style junk- the kind of crap one would expect in Russia and the Eastern Bloc gone by, China and North Korea today.

Indicative of who has high-jacked the man, and the country, for that matter.

Dr. King was murdered, simply because he only wanted equality for his people, not superiority.

He, and some or most won't agree with this, and Malcolm X, simply were not radical enough for certain elements of their followers/supporters/backers.

Instead of their deaths turning them into martyrs that would fuel change, imo, it did more harm than good.


Even the rocks don't last forever.
