So, what would Martin Luther King Jr. say today were he alive?

The homosexual rights movement is "another dimension of the struggle for human rights,"
You mean the struggle for human "sin". And you will never convince me that Dr. King would have condoned sin.
The plagurist himself? Womanizer too so I've heard.
This is one holiday that we must do away with. I've no problem with a civil rights holiday but we're forced to celebrate this fella, and in CA add in Caesar Chavez, and that great emancipator Abe Lincoln gets lumped into President's Day with the likes of Jimmy Carter & Bill Clinton? Doesn't seem right. It's unAmerican, multi-cultural panderism, part of the great socialist brainwashing. Go read Mein Kampf and "book 2" reads like a Democrat playbook.

We agree
This black man could not agree more.
MLK was a man of enormous charisma and courage and certainly a pivotal figure in the civil rights movement. There is much about him that I admire. An assesment of his life could creditably yield the adjective of great. Despite that, he does not deserve to be the ONLY American with his own holiday named after him. That honor should be reserved for only one person in American history, the greatest of all Americans, George Washington. More so than any other SINGLE figure in our history, he was the "indispensable man." Without his courage, acumen, honor, and integrity, the US would simply not exist, and if it did, it probably would have been as a monarchy and certainly not as a constitutional republic.
MLK's birthday was a sop to PC and a reflection of the DemocRAT Congress that voted it. The depth of MLK's association with the most anti-freedom ideology (Communism)of our time will prove to very embarrassing when it is fully revealed. Additionally, MLK's legacy to the modern day civil rights movement is a socialist bequeathment, that of looking to big government solutions for many of the behavioral problems in today's black community. Given the number of his inner circle advisors who were Communists or Communist sympathizers, this is not suprising.
MLK continues to cast a long shadow over most of the modern day civil rights establishment and black politicians who largely reject free market, educationally based solutions to the unique problems plaguing the black community.
