COMMISSIONER
In January 1956 while Martin Luther King was addressing a mass meeting he received news that his house had been bombed.  A huge crowd of blacks gathered outside the devastated house, many carrying weapons and threatening the police on the scene.  Martin Luther King sensed the potential for violence, and stepped in the rubble of his house, pleaded emotionally.  "My wife and baby are all right.  I want you to go home, put down your weapons.  We cannot solve this problem with retaliatory violence.  We must love our white brothers no matter what they do to us.  We must make them know that we love them.  Jesus still cries out across the countries, "Love your enemies."  This is what we must live by.  We must meet hate with love."
