How was martin luther king a pacifist?
It is hard to say whether or not Martin Luther King JR. was a pacifist. Some people feel that because he told other to always think before they act, and to use non-violent solutions, we should consider him a pacifist. However, we do not have any factually evidence telling use that he never in his how life used force. I personally think that Martin Luther King Jr. may not have been a pacifist, however i think that he was probably extremely close to being a pacifist. Pacifism is a very hard thing to keep to, as any act, or personal threat of violence on another, makes you no longer a pacifist.
