I don't think the comparisons to Gandhi, The Dalai Lama and MLK are that far off the mark. Of course, they put themselves into dangerous situations for their cause and two of them are DEAD for it, in case you have forgotten. The Dalai Lama is only alive today because he walked out of Tibet.
Regardless of your opinions on the efficacy of her actions, she deserves respect for having faith in something and for walking out her front door and making a stand for it. Disrespecting her death in order to mock will is pretty despicable. You ought to be ashamed of yourselves.
