Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day — just make sure to read some of Dr. King’s other writings while you celebrate! Join us this week as we talk about our Parody President and porn stars, a teacher getting arrested (on video) for questioning a superintendent’s pay increase, and an “I told you so!” moment here in North Carolina. Then in our #Law140 segment we talk about charges getting dismissed against Cliven Bundy and his co-conspirators, and the landmark court case of Brady v. Maryland that made it possible.
