Those who may have noticed during their morning commute a man standing on the median of North Broad and Vine streets decked out in a white robe and pointed hood can rest assured – he's in no way a member of the Ku Klux Klan.

"I'm protesting black-on-black murder," said Sixx King, who is himself black.

 Sixx is the director of documentary Mothers of No Tomorrow, a film that chronicles the ordeal faced by those who have lost children to violent crime. He donned the controversial hate group garb this morning to make a statement.

Nice, at least some one gets it.
"The society that puts equality before freedom will end up with neither; the society that puts freedom before equality will end up with a great measure of both."

"Nothing is so permanent as a temporary government program."

"We have a system that increasingly taxes work and subsidizes nonwork."

Takes some guts to tell the truth.
Good on him.
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

Both facts are sad.  He's brave to make such a bold statement.
