As a white person, I do not feel any guilt for MLK’s death. I did not shoot him. No member of my family would have shot him or advocated shooting him.

He was a fine man. This Rev is out of bounds.

I would say it is absurd to blame all white people for MLK’s death. Kind of sounds racist.

I agree. Killing MLK was a terrible thing. He did not deserve such a fate. But, he also did not deserve a national holiday in his honor, a national holiday garnted no other American person. No longer is there a Washington Day, or Lincoln day; no, they have been jumbled together in a Presideent’s day. MLK is the only person who has a national holiday all to himself.
