The one thing I remember about MLK is that he was a great Civil Riot Leader. Wherever he went, riots soon broke out.

MLK day should be called what it really is: "Pacifying the Black Lobby Day" instead of placing a race-baiting, white-hating, criminal on a pedestal

MLK was a commie and don't forget that his FBI file is still closed and it was closed for 75 years.

"wherever he went,riots broke out"
Right,almost always started by hard core white segregationist hoodlums who rampaged against largely peaceful demonstrators who were marching for the same BASIC AMERICAN rights you and I have always taken for granted.
Gee,to some on this board you would think if it wasn't for this King ogre then we could all go back to the wonderful world of separate drinking fountains and colored folks riding the back of the bus!

"Civil Riot leader" -- I love it! My only memory of him from my choildhood was from either the day he was murdered, or the day before. The radio news announced that he had just given a speech, was driven away in his car, and the riot started immediately.
