I Went to the National Civil Rights Museum Today

It's at the Lorraine Motel building, where Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated on April 4, 1968.

It's a good museum, and you should go.

I am a profoundly weird person though, becuse the thing that effected me the most was just walking in, having to empty my pockets, and walk through a metal detector.

At a memorial to one of the most prominent proponents of non-violence in American history, they have to have a metal detector, and a wand, to prevent some James Earl Ray wannabe from shooting up the place.

If this doesn't outrage you, you are seriously dense.
