It’s an MLK Day Tradition. The Fourth of July has fireworks, and MLK Day has shootings.

I’m waiting for Al Sharpton to blame white people for this.

So what did the highly acclaimed, media darling-bridge walking-icon-legend-hero-John Lewis do to prevent this horrible attack??

No doubt the shooters were white guys wearing red hats!

Come Out and Play - The Offspring

You gotta keep ‘em separated

Like the latest fashion
Like a spreading disease
The kids are strappin’ on their way to the classroom
Getting weapons with the greatest of ease

The gangs stake their own campus locale
And if they catch you slippin’ then it’s all over pal
If one guy’s colors and the other’s don’t mix
They’re gonna bash it up, bash it up, bash it up, bash it up

Hey man you talkin’ back to me?
Take him out
You gotta keep ‘em separated
Hey man you disrespecting me?
Take him out
You gotta keep ‘em separated
Hey don’t pay no mind
You’re under 18 you won’t be doing any time
Hey come out and play

By the time you hear the siren
It’s already too late
One goes to the morgue and the other to jail
One guy’s wasted and the other’s a waste

It goes down the same as the thousand before
No one’s getting smarter no one’s learning the score
Your never-ending spree of death and violence, and hate
Is gonna tie your own rope, tie your own rope, tie your own

Hey man you disrespecting me?
Take him out
You gotta keep ‘em separated
Hey man you talkin’ back to me?
Take him out
You gotta keep ‘em separated
Hey don’t pay no mind
You’re under 18 you won’t be doing any time
Hey come out and play

It goes down the same as the thousand before
No one’s getting smarter no one’s learning the score
Your never-ending spree of death and violence, and hate
Is gonna tie your own rope, tie your own rope, tie your own

Hey man you talkin’ back to me?
Take him out
You gotta keep ‘em separated
Hey man you disrespecting me?
Take him out
You gotta keep ‘em separated
Hey don’t pay no mind
You’re under 18 you won’t be doing any time
Hey come out and play

And they traded Columbus Day as a national holiday for these scumbags.

Actually, no.

Instead, they (Liberals and race-promoters) got rid of "Washington's Birthday" and Lincoln's Birthday" for some mushy abomination called "President's Day" - whatever that means. (Do we have a "Congress Day", or "Supreme Court Day"?... and if not, why not?)

But, whatever it means, Washington and Lincoln have been swept onto the trash pile and out of Americana and successfully out of the minds of American school kids and American culture and the realm of heroic American figures which we can look up to.

I'll bet not 1 in 100 American school children nowadays can give their birthdates and what they really did for this country.

Gee, MLK would be so proud to know that blacks murder each other like animals on a day set aside to remember him as a man of peace and freedom.

DISGUSTING.

Which, of course, is exactly why that abominable change was made, and those responsible should be identified and held up to everlasting condemnation by patriotic Americans.

Thanks for correcting my long standing mistaken belief.

I love the Columbus Day parade in Manhattan. My nephews and nieces dont give a ####, but that’s as should be. Like I said, they’re 3rd generation and far removed.

It’s a shame about the president’s holidays. Washing especially!!!

But he was just a lousy no good slave owner.

And Columbus was a brutal tyrant who slaughtered 100s of thousands.

Yes, sarcasm.

we celebrate too many cultures who’ve contributed almost nothing instead of ones that have contributed so much.

BTW, I speak Italian and have some family over there, but besides earthquakes that might affect family, I couldn’t give a #### about what the country is up to.

Though the immigration problem saddens me, that’s their problem. Mine is America’s issues.
