Coretta Scott King said that the civil rights leader was faithful even though the FBI sent her tapes of him having sex with other women.

Mrs King said without a confession from her husband she had a ‘gut feeling’ that their marriage was secure.

Mrs King said she believed her husband was ‘no saint’ - but his but his faults were things like stepping out of his pajamas and leaving them on the floor.

coretta is delusional as befits LIB moonbats. Reality is just too difficult for lefties. Did she ever find her “safe space”?

When the legend becomes fact, print the legend.

I’m not sure what to believe and frankly it doesn’t matter at this point. Even the great heroes in the Bible had flaws. MLK preached the betterment of a divided society through non-violence and character building. Good enough for me but America in general goes overboard with celebrating his greatness.

Bill Clinton is known for his prowling. MLK is not. He is known for his non-violent resistance and the speeches he gave. (Has John Lewis ever said anything memorable?) We would all be better if he were around instead of the clowns who pretend to carry on his legacy. And FR would be better represented if that were the message here.

Ummm... I would not confuse Stanley Levinson and King with Bible Heroes but free country. More or less free. It’ll be freer in a few days.

But King was committed to non-violence at a time when blacks could easily have been lead in a violent direction. This country is better for his time with us.

At the time of his assassination, King was suffering a decline in popularity. Younger blacks were distancing themselves from his "non-violent" commitment they viewed as emasculating, choosing instead to embrace the more militant black-power movements. Fewer were attending his rallies. He was drinking excessively. Stress was taking a toll on his health.

A phenomenal page-turner of narrative non-fiction, Hellhound on His Trail is a straightforward, non-politicized account of the events leading up to that fateful night at the Lorraine Motel and the following manhunt for James Earl Ray, --who almost got away with it.

“The Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King Jr,” and let’s throw in African-American while we’re at it. That’s an extra SEVEN syllables.

All I know is Al Sharpton never pays his taxes, skips out on court judgements, rents. He is above the law and beneath human dignity.

We all have feet of clay.

But delusion really does not help anybody.

It's strictly business.

Sounds familiar...Hillary???

[Lord Castlereagh]

Damn! You right.

[Alberta's Child]

You are nothing in this world unless you are Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Sea, man. LOL.

>> There is no doubt. But King was committed to non-violence at a time when blacks could easily have been lead in a violent direction. This country is better for his time with us.

So true. Just compare with BLM, and the efforts of the violent/disruptive black community to steal the political mantle of MLK, to which they have no right.

What’s the point in bringing this up?
