Ustwo, I'm sure you're just being flip, but it's a little insulting to everything MLK accomplished to insinuate that he's remembered well mostly because he was assassinated. You have a point that the manner of his death is one of the things that makes his legacy memorable, but it's not just that he was shot, it's that he died essentially because of his vision of equality and justice for all people.
