Martin Luther King Jr.'s 6 Principles of Nonviolence


  1. Nonviolence is a way of life for courageous people.
  2. Nonviolence seeks to win friendship and understanding.
  3. Nonviolence seeks to defeat injustice, not people.
  4. Nonviolence holds that suffering can educate and transform.
  5. Nonviolence chooses love instead of hate.
  6. Nonviolence believes that the universe is on the side of justice.


I don't know about you, but I sure needed this reminder.

I'm pretty much a nonviolent guy. But I bet MLK never used a dating site, eh, Patia?

Nope, and I hear he was pretty popular with the ladies.

I'll bet he never had to listen to global warming deniers, either.
