Ever since time itself, people have been killed while promoting change for the better, for example; Jesus, John Lennon, John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., Abraham Lincoln, Malcolm X, etc. Why are we so desperate for change, and whenever somebody does come around and try to make it happen they end up extinct?
