San Antonio hosts the nations largest MLK march every year. This year there is debate on whether or not to acknowledge or even give tribute to our armed forces on MLK day as they are fighting for freedom and democracy.

Of course, MLK could have only been successful under a western type culture like America made free by its armed forces. If he tried that stuff in a Nazi or Muslim world, he would have been liquidated very quickly...

Patti Radle is no doubt a proponent of the MLK adultery float displaying the likeness of the numerous mistresses of the civil rights leader thus maintaining the theme of "do it with love and understanding."

I thought MK liked to beat up women.

To Hell with Michael Luther King and all who worship at his feet.
Call him what he was, a socialist and a tool of the communists.

Is there any Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd, Street, Avenue, etc. that is safe to walk on during any hour of the day?

These people are so darn smart. Just think if we had only been non-violent and had shown love and compassion to Adolph and Tojo, that entire WW II thingy would not have been necessary.
I say we send these San Antonio folks to Iran to see if they can learn to sing Kumbaya too.

Awww...you can find almost any pablum from Ghandi. His words were effective opportunism and he took multiple (and often apparently contradictory) sides on most subjects.

MLK had bodyguards. Their job was to protect him, presumably using violence if neccesary. There is no historical evidence that he disrespected these men or their role.
So why would including our nation's bodyguards in this event contradict his legacy?
