And, it is not “...crapping on the graves....” as you put it. It is merely making a statement in opposition to the dishonest statements made in his favor. Burn me in a cage, you’ll not be able to break my will or change my mind.

“I thought that Muslims did not recognize the Nation of Islam as true Islam.”

Bingo! American Black Muslims are a weird, made-up hybrid, very different from the Middle East version, a fact which was discovered by Malcolm X, and which led to his assassination.

Muhammad Ali seemed to have reservations about Islam in recent years; he was quoted renouncing jihad after 9/11 and after the San Bernadino attack.
Trump would do well to point out some of Ali’s anti-jihad quotes, and ask very pointedly, why aren’t Muslims coming out publicly in grey numbers to denounce the violence, as Ali did?
Trump could seize an opportunity here to put them on the defensive. Make them respond.

Very really. No honor, not even in death...not for him because of what he stood for and his behavior.

-------------

And, it is not “...crapping on the graves....” as you put it. It is merely making a statement in opposition to the dishonest statements made in his favor. Burn me in a cage, you’ll not be able to break my will or change my mind.

I'll bite, what did he stand for and what was his behavior.

Without facts, your posts are every bit as dishonest as those who you disagree with.

Like it or not, you did take some Charmin to the graveyard - standing firm may make one feel good, but surely you act the ham when you get so dang dramatic over this..."you'll not be able to break my will or change my mind"........Sheesh and Lawd Almighty, but surely this guy jests.

His behavior was childish and immature and he was racist against whites. You can name call me all you want. Absolutely no kidding. You guys never get it...until it’s too late. Foolish on your part.

Ali did take his stand and accepted the consequences. A lot of people wouldn't do that.

Unless they had good legal representaion and wanted to be allowed to box again.

LOL! I read my mail first and now understand why you told me not to keep responding to you and how you "will not be goaded" - you made another statement w/o opting to take the challenge and cite anything relevant. Drama Queen.

Do you mean too late as in after the person is dead? Do you have proof he was racist against Whites?

As far as foolish for being too late, what does that make your decision to crap on his grave after not crusading against "what he stood for and how he lived"???

Enquiring minds want to know - please use some o dat stage queen language - I find it entertaining....
