Happy Birthday Dr King "Your words moved many and we needed a man like you!".

Happy Birthday just does not fit for Today we as the nation celebrates 'Martin Luther King Day', in honor of an iconic figure in the development of civil rights in the US and around the world.. Yes Rev. Dr. King your words moved many and still today we fight for all to have civil rights. As I sit here in my small apartment looking over the memorial park in our small ocean side town covered in snow with christmas lights still aglow. I think who still does not have civil rights well it only takes one look at the flag pole to answer that it flying at half staff today" no not because it Martin Luther King Day its flying because some one is still fighting for our civil rights and dying everyday here is a small look at who and what they were doing. 23-year-old Army Pfc.
Benjamin Moore of Bordentown was killed by an improvised explosive device. A soldier from New Jersey killed in Afghanistan.so we could have civil rights.




Local Police Officer Killed  protecting our civil rights Officer Meatless was shot three times in his patrol car Friday, allegedly by suspect Jahmell W. Crockam, 19, of Lakewood. Matlosz died an hour after the shooting and Crockam was arrested in Camden on Sunday.
"He is the first officer I recall (shot to death) in my 38 years in law enforcement and that I remember 59 years as an Ocean County resident," said Deputy Chief Michael Mohel of the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office.
Matlosz, 27, had been a member of the Lakewood Police Department since 2006 and before that, had been an officer in Englishtown since 2004.
Mohel said an autopsy showed Matlosz died of three gunshot wounds to the head. The autopsy was performed Saturday at Community Memorial Hospital in Toms River by Dr. Ian Hood.

 It also makes me think of the American Homeless Veterans who is protecting their civil rights I think its not our Goverment and groups like American Homeless Veteran our doing there best but who is watching their civil rights.
And then Vets like me who is watching my civil rights the rights of the survivors of Military Sexual Trauma Thanks to people like Dr King Their is Veteran Advocacy Groups and great people who are Veteran Advocates. So as I close today I ask you not what can the words of Dr King do but what are you doing to protect our civil rights. HAPPY BIRTHDAY Rev. Dr. King.
