bttt - I can't believe some of the crap I just read.
I think you forget, a very credible woman accused him of rape.
Jesus, and MLK.
Doesn't quite seem right to me, but what do I know. I'm not a p.c. panderer.
MANY folks do/have done that. I am not saying that MLK wasn't a good man, I don't know enough about him to say anything about him specifically, but I DO think that he was singled out for the pedestal ONLY to placate blacks. What did he actually accomplish?
Hell, this country even stopped recognizing Washington and Lincoln as individuals. The only individuals who are given their own federal holidays are Jesus and MLK. Does that really seem right to you?
I guess some people can't stand the thought of a black man receiving a great honor.
That is a cheap shot.
