Wha?? I thought MLK was a hero. I mean he was great and they attack him? Oh wait was MLK a conservative ? if so then the assassins were liberals?

Sounds like the downtrodden vs. the downtrodden to see who gets the media attention.

I wonder if there were any blacks among the "protesters", or if they all the regular gang of white Trustafarians and neo-commies that we saw during the OWS astroturf riots.

Too bad the people who came out for the commemoration didn't kick the crap out of them.

Yes, the mother who had so much concern for sonny boy that she didn’t seem to notice he was using dope and robbing convenience stores. She still hasn’t milked this thing for all the $ she can get, so she has to pretend she is something she isn’t.

They don’t care about winning friends and influencing people. They’re all about intimidating people.

It works for the Muslims.

There would be even more hope, if most people stopped acting as if they truly believe there exists is a monolithic “black community”.

MLKs “Dream” might really die, because so many ignorant people are encouraged to only see skin color, and not character.

It doesn't help that the media/politicians/idiots always seem to gravitate towards the most cliched of negative stereotypes of any race/religion/sex etc “community” when they start sticking mics in front of peoples faces in any situation!

As if I have everything in common with a low class white trash, meth head, ex-con, welfare queen, single mother, simply because we are both visually identifiable as white and female.

Just saying....

"Violence never brings permanent peace. It solves no social problem: it merely creates new and more complicated ones. Violence is impractical because it is a descending spiral ending in destruction for all. It is immoral because it seeks to humiliate the opponent rather than win his understanding: it seeks to annihilate rather than convert. Violence is immoral because it thrives on hatred rather than love. It destroys community and makes brotherhood impossible. It leaves society in monologue rather than dialogue. Violence ends up defeating itself. It creates bitterness in the survivors and brutality in the destroyers." ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

This is a typical case of the far, far left coming in and trying to scare off the moderate left. As my son in Special Forces pointed out the Marxist/Leninist/Stalinist/Putinist goal is to protest true injustice to the point that efforts for positive change fail, the dispossessed become more frustrated, the revolution takes over, and the DICTATORSHIP of the proletariat becomes fact. Apparently large chunks of money were put into the Ferguson efforts, from where?? Why did they pick a man who was visibly shown to be an overgrown bully to be their hero/victim? There is something funny going on here and it is interesting that it coincides with Putin’s Crimea grab, and the proxy war in the Ukraine. Shooting themselves in the foot? For some feet, part of THE PLAN. There is and has long been a subtle and not so subtle struggle between the left that wants justice, and the left that wants chaos. It has picked up since Putin.

The street and highway blocking is annoying, but really, this one’s where I permanently say “nuts on this noise”. No, you guys don’t actually give a crap about black lives, because if you did, you wouldn’t be harassing a MLK Day memorial service on a historically-black college campus, you morons. If this ever happens again, particularly at a HBCU, and the cops and the students look at each other, look at the protesters, look back at each other and go “you hold ‘em, we’ll beat ‘em”...I’m just saying.

See my Comment #58 for a precise description of exactly what is going on and why. My parents saw it in the ‘30s, I saw it in the 60’s and my son is seeing it now. Take a group of serious people trying to make things better for poor, send in a communist to steal their treasury, send in thugs and trash talkers to chase out the elderly and middle class blacks, stir up genuine punks to loot and steal. That’s how it works and has worked for decades. Remember a lot of decent people to the left distrust big government and big money just as much as FReepers and tea party do. But it is all a great excuse for more non judicial spying by govt. agencies. Time to unite to put down the World Government Dictatorship of the Rich, and the Communist so-called Dictatorship of the Proletariat. Remember, the key word is and always will be DICTATORSHIP.
