Answer:

-He would agree with King that one should engage in political protest peacefully.

Explanation:

Thoreau would most likely agree with King's statement. This is because the statement reflects the way Thoreau approached civil disobedience in his own life. Thoreau believed that a person had the responsibility to follow his own values and principles. And, if these were contrary to the law, he was justified in opposing such a law. However, they should also be ready to face the consequences. Thoreau acted in this way, and as a consequence, was imprisoned for his actions.
