As comedian Chris Rock once said on HBO,
"anyone who finds themselves lost on an MLK-named street, Run! Run! Run!, “Now what’s Martin Luther King? A street. And I don’t give a f**k where you are in America, if you on Martin Luther King Boulevard, there’s some violence going down.”
Who wants their street to be named Martin Luther King, not me! Tony Trussler TV sales associate for the past dozen years and sold me my home ten years ago and he's still going strong. He has a street named after him, and rightly so. What did MLK ever do for the TV?
