<span>King responded to suggestion that the Birmingham protests were untimely by stating that Albert Boutwell was not different enough to warrant patience. He further states that privileged groups are always certain to oppose any action that threatens the status quo. King justified his actions by stating that an individual has the right to reject unjust laws, and that the black community had waited more than 340 years for justice.</span>

I would respond to the claim that the protests were untimely by stating that the speed at which negotiations were moving only extended the suffering period of the black community. The continued election of racist leaders only made patience an unnecessary virtue.

King discredited the law because the majority forces the minority to adhere to it while not following it as required. He states that the laws are both unjust and undemocratic to minorities rendering courtrooms and negotiationsuseless in the struggle against segregation.

Was the Mexican-American war justified? Your product should be an essay.
steposvetlana [31]

The United States-Mexico War partially abides by this principle. Although the United States and Mexico wished to resolve the territorial dispute peacefully, the two nations resorted to the use of force. The United States sent an envoy, John Slidell, to Mexico in order to annex Texas, New Mexico, and California diplomatically. However, the Mexican government refused to accept the envoy since the public was against Texas annexation to the United States. Although Mexico warned the United States that Texas annexation would be a "declaration of war," the American government signed an annexation treaty with Texas in 1846, which caused the Mexicans to use military force to protect its territorial integrity. Therefore, the Mexican-American war could have been prevented had the United States regarded the Mexican admonitions seriously.

Hope this helps!!!!!!
