Don't throw me in with Pariah. I'm not belittling the Civil Rights movement, simply the validity of saying Rosa Parks is some sort of hero. In her own words she was simply tired and didn't feel like moving. By all definitions that equals stubborn and lazy. Certainly the rules forcing her to the back were terribly wrong, but it doesn't make her some sort of hero for sitting there. And even if afterwards she was used as an icon for Civil Rights and participated in rallies and marches, it was all based upon one act of laziness.
Its like how George Washington only agreed to be president because he had some debts to pay off and a rather sizeable alcohol habit to support. You can say he did some great things as President, but he still chose to become President out of greed.
JFK also did great things as President, but he was pushed into the role in the first place by his father.
do you see my point or are you guys going to keep calling me a douchebag to feel better about yourself? Because, lets be honest, that's the only reason this deep thoughts board exists.
Bow ties are coool.
