The truth about the civil rights protests is that they descended into violence in 1963 and the opportunity to peacefully change things was lost in the years ahead.

Howard K. Smith, ABC news anchor, noted that the violence turned the public against civil rights in the end when he was interviewed on PBS in the early 70’s.

The GOP made big gains in 1966 on the basis of the backlash.

MLK was surrounded by Communists and he was a “sex addict”, but he had a good vision of non-violence and a success with it at Birmingham in 1963 that needs to be emulated in our times.

The angry politics that drives us to the polls every time to vote for RINO’s wont work.
