family-friendly MLK day event... Lots of evidence that these MLK events are anything but family friendly and often end in gunfire.
Same as driving down any given MLK blvd. Seeing that name, as Chris Rock has said means RUN:
Martin Luther King stood for nonviolence,” says comedian Chris Rock. 'Now what’s Martin Luther King? A street. And I don’t give a f*** where you are in America, if you on Martin Luther King Boulevard, there’s some violence going down. Later, Rock gives advice to anyone who finds themselves lost on an MLK-named street: 'Run! Run! Run!'

Actually, the young black male population would be closer to 3.25% of the overall population, not 5.00%.
Imagine that, 3.25% causing over 50% of the violent crime, but if anyone points that out, they may get in trouble.

Can I guess or do I have to look?

Did MLK ever explain why 13% of the population commit over 50% of the violent crime? Actually, black males between 17-44 are approximately just 2.5% of the population but commit over 50% of the violent crime in America.

Last Friday, I was at a place where gunfire just “broke out” at precisely 1000 hrs, and continued all day. Some of the shooters even had extremely dark skin!
Oddly enough, nobody got hurt.
It’s not the guns ... it’s the nut behind the trigger.

"Worst street in every city in America?…"Fayetteville Arkansas has a MLK but no Black community. The University gentrified the only Black neighborhood out of exitance. It's mainly the fast-food strip for the University students.

"Did MLK ever explain why 13% of the population commit over 50% of the violent crime?"Before the Democrats has him killed the violence the the Black community wasn't that bad but it started heading that way right after he was killed.

Not in Baltimore.
There are worse. (Where my mother’s loser “cleaning woman” lives even people in Western MD know is bad!)
But yes, MLK at ground level is still pretty bad - or it draws a line thru all the bad.

Pretty much anything associated with any black person is associated with race baiting, grifting and violence.
Hence my hesitancy to push celebrating more useful people like Booker Washington, George W. Carver and Benjamin Banneker.
