It is amazing how many people who idolize MLK Jr, have no idea what his message was.

The good Lord took him out of the picture as he had already gotten into a sad slide into socialistic ideals. Strictly speaking it’s academic. I think he was a believer that God had to discipline so that he wouldn’t jettison his salvation.

MLK believed in non-violence......St. Skittles jumped a man and smashed bis head repeatedly into the cement because he was a cracka.

Yeah, I see the similarities/s

These people are certifiably insane (no sarc tag)

I think MLK would tell the black (mis)leaders (Jessie, Al, Louis and Obama) that Trayvon is a THUG. MLK must be rolling over in his grave to see what he fought for, being used against the USA.

This is getting out-of-hand.

True...

Van Jones and his ilk would spit in MLK’s face if he was still here. MLK is considered nothing but a prop by the likes of the Al Sharptons.

He would be considered “conservative” by today’s standards.

No, this is his niece Alveda King, who is a pro-life activist and in favor of equal rights - no special privileges - for everyone.

Do Blacks wear hoodies when they kill each other? Just asking.

Now that is just as bigoted a remark as all the ones coming from the other side.
The niece is Alveta King , a conservative republican who stands against nonsense like this all the time .

Nothing to do with race - the family required some kind of copyright payment from the people who built the DC monument to MLK in DC. She may not be in on it, but in some fashion or other, the family definitely is.
