Okay. That was a stab at MLK. I was pondering that, didn’t know what to make of it. I have never heard that expression, and couldn’t figure out what he said.

At first, I thought he just got his tongue tied and it came out that way, but it seemed improbable.

I thought he said “Martin Luther Cohen” but in looking it up in the Internet, he must have been saying “Martin Luther Coon” since that is the only epithet that came back.

I wonder why he would say that. It seemed off message, and would only inflame people he might have been trying to reach.

Well on the same page; there is a video of black panthers and one of them giving a speech to kill crackers. Little children, the little girls and boys. Why is he not arrested. Sounds like terrorism to me. It’s a crazy, sick world.

I am a little more impressed with this guy, he doesn’t start his video with a big cigar and he is less inflammatory in my opinion.

In context of his other plays on words, the reference was clearly to Martin Luther “Cohn”, which would indicate SOME influence in his background from Louis Farrakhan.

You'll notice in the video that he has a picture of MLK upside down on his wall. I think his opinion may be that MLK, perhaps rightfully at the time, directed his energy toward changing the behavior of white people.

The speaker in the video perhaps feels that we are far past that point in time. It is the behavior of black people which is responsible for the majority of their problems.
