MLK Vs Malcom X

Both of their methods had an effect on the civil rights movement, while MLK preferred Civil disobedience to violence, which I felt had a better impact and a better image the Malcolm X 's, methods. This has been stated that he would do what ever was necessary to achieve his goals, which would  sometimes involve violence to me his method. If incorrectly used could have sparked U.S military action and/or retaliation's and could mean the death of many people of both races.  While MLK's was simple nonviolent protest that would not demand action be taken if for ex Mlk's quote" if somebody punches you hug them back" compared to Malcolm X's quote" if they lay a hand on you kill them". The objects were similar but not the methods.
