So answer me this, why cherrypick MLK’s foibles but not other historical figures foibles?

because that's who we're talking about on this thread.

I'll be glad to talk about anybody of any color or ethnicity or religion who has their own personal US national holiday or for that matter any other figure you'd like

no I don't buy that argument....about Presidents Day......they combined the others to make room for King to have his own....unmerited in my view.

maybe a National Heroes day like some British West Indies nations have....that would make room for others too

nor do I believe this nation was in danger of becoming South Africa since unlike South Africa we are approximately 11% black (and going down) not 75-80% black like South Africa....speaking of which ....do you really think South Africa is much of a benchmark of anything these days aside from a study in decline?

that's cruel picking on Helen Keller, you should be ashamed?

I just have to ask...do they send you guys out in waves or pickets?...lol

you've all been trained in the same perspective, this new funky moderate social thing where conservatives are supposed to embrace 60s racial and social idealism at face value

so weird for a conservative forum

we have folks posting threads over and over....some of the same folks who always post together....bashing doofuss Ron Paul for having his pic taken (probably not knowing better) with NeoNazis and maybe some linking to him or maybe he doesn't like the King holiday much for whatever reason and some here feel the need to trumpet that fact over and over like he's a bonafide Klukker.

what is the purpose? Paul is laregly irrelevant as are true white racists these days ...it just smells like some folks here get off on smearing conservatism in general and even this site and they all parrot the same lines.....I see this daily (maybe not you but who knows)....many even link far left sites in this attack on Paul and his supporters

Stormfront has tried to link to FR for years at times but that doesn't mean FR is a Stormfront site

Over the years I have seen a handful of true racist agitators here....yet some here would like to smear Paul folks as racists ...

For me this obsession with white racism is nuts, our culture today has arguably 99% less true white racism than 50 years so why keep beating the drum? It's so self serving and it makes folks do what you want. I understand that allure. It grants power over others, whites being so afraid to be called racist. They'd rather be called a child molester.

But it's terribly dishonest and self serving and in the long run destructive.

A charge of “racism” can usually shut a debate down faster than an armed gestapo. When it fails to do so, the person howling “racism” usually gets pretty frustrated. It must be like dropping a nuclear bomb and finding out it didn’t go off, and it was the lone weapon in your arsenal.
