Martin Luther King's Son: Trayvon Murdered Because He Was Black
breitbart.com/Big-Government ^ | 8-24-2013 | Tony Lee

On Saturday, Martin Luther King III, son of the civil rights icon, used a rally that honored the 50th anniversary of the Reverend Doctor's "I Have a Dream" to politicize and inject race into the tragic death of Trayvon Martin, asserting he was killed because of the color of his skin.

"Sadly, the tears of Trayvon Martin's mother and father remind us that far too frequently the color of one's skin remains a license to profile, arrest, and to even murder with no regard to the content of one's character," Martin Luther King III declared. "Regressive 'stand your ground' laws must be repealed."

The civil rights struggle has come a long way since MLK: straight down.

“I have a dream...judged not by the color of their skin but by CONTENT of their CHARACTER.” MLK fifty or so years ago.

“Sorry pops, my dream is to bust whitey in the lip with impunity.” Martin Luther King III, present day?

Did anyone notice that all the sellouts complained about Trayvon Martin being killed and then the damn hypocrites turned around and invited Planned Parenthood(an organization founded by the support of the Klan to the rally), just called me informed but MSM will not report that.

Detroit leads the nation in defensive shootings and almost every last one of them are older black people (often elderly) defending themselves from thugs.

A year or two back while Jesse Jackson was in Detroit to celebrate MLK day, a black WWII vet was beaten and had his car stolen at a gas station in full view of onlookers in the middle of the day.

Trayvon assaulted the neighborhood watchman.

The watchman has been attacked and slandered without regard to the content of his character.

But he is alive. The australian ballplayer is dead. Had he been armed and had he defended himself Sharpton and the obamists would be attacking and slandering him and bankrupting him and his whole family; but he would be alive. Bankrupt, in hiding, but alive.

"Regressive 'stand your ground' laws must be repealed."

A. Martin wasn't murdered. He was a Darwin Award recipient.
B. This wasn't a stand your ground case.
C. Control your communities, or you will start seeing a lot more Zimmermans.

Trayvon Murdered Because He Was Black

There is a mistake in the title. Trayvon only attempted to murder someone - and only once, as far as the people know. Unfortunately for Trayvon, the victim had other plans.

(Newspaper style headings mangle the language so much that they become incomprehensible, or carry a different message altogether.)

The Wall Street Journal had a news report on the beating and killing of that WWII veteran, in Spokane, Wash., by two black thugs.

Interesting that the article had no mention of the race of the “alleged” perpetrators, even though a man-hunt is still on for one of them. The article only referred to them as “teens.” No picture was provided. Authorities refused to speculate on the motive - said they didn’t care what the motive was.

You’re not supposed to mention “black on white” crime or “black on black” crime. If you do, that’s racist. But if a black is killed by a non-black, then all hell breaks loose and automatically the motive is racism.

Given the MLK estate’s proclivity for protecting MLK’s words and image, I wonder how long it will be before they strip MLK III of his birthname....

no regard to the content of one's character

Plenty of insight to the content of this one's character and it was only a matter of time....

Okay, Luther, then Delbert “Shorty” Belton, was killed for being white!!!.... I see this story is no longer on DRUDGE!!!...That is one of our problems. WE need to keep OUR focuse and keep harping the OBVIOUS in their face like they do ours. We need to keep these stories alive like they do...sadly, the victims can no longer live. Keep it going like they do with a thug getting killed in the comission of a crime, and turning him and his makeshift family into saints!!.....Delbert “Shorty” Belton!!!!!!!!!!!!

100% accurate.

He was a black that bought into the gangsta culture.

He died because of his belief that color dictates lifestyle.

This man should just shut up. I am so sick of the crap they pull. If black people don’t make something of themselves it is their own fault not because they are black. Lots of blacks shooting blacks why is that or is that a white persons fault too? Read a story about an 8 yr. shooting his grandmother in the head I believe they were black so who you gonna blame whitey?
I hope to God they put up Corey Booker for President in 2016 because if they do and he gets elected this stuff will continue.

Or in any other country. Wherever you see blacks you see the same BS. They are always picked on and the Honkies are holding them back. Whatever country they are in they are causing trouble.

MLK III just another ignorant black , if his name was jones, who would care what he said. he is using his Fathers rep to make a buck.
