An old comic strip (2012) on an old comedian.
George Carlin on assassination
(graphic animated violence)
I was amazed by the names in the list.
Jesus
Ghandhi
Lincoln
John Kennedy
Bobby Kennedy
Martin Luther King
Medgar Evers
Malcolm X
John Lennon
I didn't see the similarity until it was pointed out.

From the strip: Talk about cherry-picking examples to make a point. A cursory read through wikipedia's assassination page gives plenty of opposite examples. Pretty sure Julius Caeser, Philip II of Macedon and Indira Gandhi weren't preaching peaceful co-existence. It's always people who've told us to live together in harmony and try to love one another

Don't forget too that Malcom X, who is named in the strip, wasn't exactly preaching harmony, either.
