Blacks sure have a different way of celebrating. Chicago must be party town for Black people.

And deranged black leftist Congresscritters are boycotting Trump because he’s not down with da struggle.

Meanwhile, blacks keep gunning each other down. Trump’s fault!

= = = = = = = = =

Any alert tourist knows to bypass ANYTHING in cities with the name MLK attached to it.....

Or at least have your weapon ready....and if need be there leave enough room between the car in front of you so you can maneuver if needed.... GOOD ADVICE in any city or ‘strange place’ but exceptionally good in MLK territory...

He would really be disgusted by what his ‘dream’ turned into.

Just the result of the communist party radicalizing blacks to think that civil rights means shooting someone.

Color of skin overwhelming the character content.

May we assume that you meant that there wasn't a lot of content of *admirable* character on display?

If that's *not* what you meant I,personally,would have to disagree with you.

*Strongly* disagree.

“I now can report that we have two people detained and are being questioned by our detectives,” Detective Marjoria Eloi said, “and we have two firearms that have been detained.”

Yeah. First sentence.

The MLK Holiday has not been a holiday celebrating non-violence for a long time. I Don't think it ever was.
