Just another angry man WA Final Draft

Young men of Beta Chi, I am here to tell you all how sadly misinformed you are about a certain influential leader in our nation's history. Many of you probably think Martin Luther Kind Jr. is to equal rights as an alcoholic is to shots, but that's only because they both don't know when to stop even when they've had enough. Sure he won equal rights and wasn't violent, yadda yadda yadda, but is he really all that he's cracked up to be? Does he really deserve a national holiday in and a high school auditorium in his name? If we're honest with ourselves, he's really nothing more than yet another angry man with too much time on his hands. Think about it, things are going smoothly along in America, then suddenly this guy decides he's not content with his lot and proclaims himself campus police and busts up everybody's parties. Then he and his buddies decide to walk up and down a street all day until "the man" shuts down your frat house. This guy was like that whiny freshman that didn't like being hazed, so he went and told and got your frat shut down. If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen. But Mr. Martin Luther King Jr. wanted to stay in the kitchen, and make you turn down the heat.
Okay, so let's pretend that this man was right, and he did a great thing, leading millions of people out of despair and into freedom. Big whoop. Moses led all of Israel to a paradise, and he doesn't get a holiday. Nor does Nelson Mandela or Gandhi. Heck, God's own son only gets two holidays, and he has to share them with Santa and the Easter bunny. All i'm saying here is, this man could have just made his own frat house and things would have gone fine, but instead he tore down yours and told you how to rebuild it, and all of this with the university's support.
