Read the excerpts from dr. king's "letter from birmingham jail" and answer the question.
i was arrested friday on a charge of parading without a permit. now there is nothing wrong with an ordinance which requires a permit for a parade, but when the ordinance is used to preserve segregation and to deny citizens the first amendment privilege of peaceful assembly and peaceful protest, then it becomes unjust.

we can never forget that everything hitler did in germany was "legal" and everything the hungarian freedom fighters did in hungary was "illegal." it was "illegal" to aid and comfort a jew in hitler's germany. but i am sure that, if i had lived in germany during that time, i would have aided and comforted my jewish brothers even though it was illegal. if i lived in a communist country today where certain principles dear to the christian faith are suppressed, i believe i would openly advocate disobeying these anti-religious laws.
