The well known picture that is forever seared in my memory is of the scene 180 degrees from the above viewpoint... that of the balcony showing Andrew Young, Jesse Jackson and others pointing across the way toward the location of the perpetrator.

ReplyDeleteNot a typo... a senior moment. Thanks for pointing out my error. It is now fixed.
