Alleged Murder Weapon to be exhibited at the Nation Civil Rights Museum

Just when it appeared that the National Civil Rights Museum had sunk as low as it could get - yet another disappointing piece of news raises its head. The alleged murder weapon, a Remington 30.06 GameMaster rifle has been secured in an arrangement between the museum and the Justice Department.

Although there is considerable doubt as to whether the rifle was indeed responsible for the crime. The burning issue is whether it is a suitable subject for exhibition within the museum. Surely the time has come for the museum to come to its senses and realise that this blatant exploitation should cease and it should send out the right signals to its youthful visitors by promoting the non-violence teachings of Dr. King.

Now is the time for the museum to set an example to American youth and reject the gun culture so prevalent in this society. Please, for once, set an example to our children and reject this project - now.
