Don’t the civil rights crowd glory in getting arrested?
The antislavery crow did a bit more than that ~ (fill in family orchard full of slave catcher’s bodies, bleeding kansas, underground railway, protecting the drinking gourd pathway to liberty) ~ so, I don’t believe Br’r Akin did any wrong.
Seems Martin Luther King was arrested many, many times too. So what? He is a national hero. Go Akin!
