Also, it comes just two weeks after the end of the Christmas/New Year holiday season.

But most people do not think that today's federal holiday for the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. ranks up there as one of the nation's important ones. America was pressured into observing this, people just felt it wasn't worth the fight. That "statue" is horrendous, so perfectly fitting.

MLK is MORE important now, as they try to hide his "content of their character" message.
That sculpture is gross.

One out of three people are completely retarded or lying.
Some black guy getting killed is most important?
More so than Independence or Veterans?
F these 34%.

If you commissioned The KKK to do a statue honoring MLK, that’s what it would have looked like.

Personally I pay no attention to what polls say......too much data manipulation to sway public opinion and set a narrative to pursue an agenda IMO.
IOW many polls have been weaponized.

That sculpture is gross. Looks like some cannibal trying to eat a turd as if it were corn-on-the-cob.

From a historical importance...
Honestly I’d put Juneteenth way above MLK.
Celebrating the ending of slavery is a far bigger deal than on man’s birthday.
Washington helped make this Nation happen.
Lincoln saved and preserved it.
MLK was an important historical figure, but I don’t believe he’s on that level.
And if the recent allegations about his personal behavior are true.. it’s disturbing on all sorts of levels.
To: billorites
Methinks the myth about MLK being conservative is right up there with JFK being one.
Both men were politicians first and foremost, and I believe if both were alive today, they would be running around with gay pride flags, defending infanticide without limits, demanding an end to fossil fuels, and being in lock step with every other contemporary anti-American leftist.
I believe this is true based on the behavior of their surviving family members and proteges.
Look no further than Ted Kennedy, Jessie Jackson, and Rafael Warnock for examples.

You’re probably correct. I just had to “yell at those damned kids to get off of my lawn!”
I’m better now. :)
