Dr Martin Luther King oh dear

There's #blacklivesmatter and there's #metoo, but which is best?  There's only one way to find out....FIIIIIIIGHT!





I'm reminded of a joke which I'd love to post but shall refrain as I strongly suspect it would lead to a ban.

Seen a great slogan the other day "Black Dogs Matter". Any self respecting black dog owner should get the T shirt.

When arethe universities eager to tie up with his legacy going to drop that association ?

I met Dr. Martin Luther King in 1962 in Memphis, Tennessee. I walkin' down the street minding my own business, just walking on. Feelin' good. I walk around the corner, a man walk up, hit me in my chest, right. I fall on the ground, right. And I look up and it's Dr. Martin Luther King. I said 'Dr. King?' and he said 'Ooops, I thought you were some body else.'

Eddie Murphy knew

Just you watch, the MeToo, HopeNotHate, BlackLivesMatter, Antifa, Corbyn's Labour, Feminists, Universities and Social Justice Warriors everywhere will be battling to see who can be the first to erase Martin Luther's King legacy from history, and disassociate from his memory. Right?

Poor old MLK. He's retrospectively been found wanting on so many scores.

Have they got anything on John Lennon?

I still like the man

All powerful men now get women making rape claims.....do it for the money imo

His mistake was trying to end the Vietnam War not black rights--bang!

you are right there Terry

There were plenty of others who did not want that war, because they would be sent out there...far too dangerous

In Martin Luther King's case it was too dangerous at home in the USA

rip

I am sure he helped black rights a lot...always advocating non violence

Unfortunately problems remain between whites/blacks in the USA...and hardly non violent

He watched a rapist at work, is there a non violent rape?

The Assange method?

no there is not saddo

but what  actually constitutes rape seems to be getting harder to define

women sometimes consent to sex and after claim to have been raped, especially if alcohol is involved

If a women was raped and it was recorded, was the man responsible charged with rape

Let's compare and contrast Snowflake Media (tm) coverage of reports of this recording of him at orgies, dozens of affairs, and happy to watch his friend r@pe someone, with reports of Trump saying something that was a blowhard figurative non literal statement.. Will C4 news devote 10 minutes to this?

Where did this info come from? Lets remember he was murdered by the CIA in 1968,so only 51 years ago. As I say,his big mistake was to take on the war and the money it was making so bang! that's yer lot mate.

They are apparently files from monitoring and bugging him back in the day, now being released as the time period for secrecy is up, ~ 50 years or whatever.

Gormless bastard you are not checking as per,still maybe in your case its better that way.

Why do I bother even slightly engaging with and trying and educate this one, it really is an exercise in futility..

Just to add to the debate.

After his ‘I Have a Dream’ speech, the FBI considered Martin Luther King the ‘most dangerous and effective leader’ in the USA. J Edgar Hoover hated King, so he tapped his phones, labelled him a Communist and sexual deviant, and anonymously sent him a letter saying he had 'just 34 days’ to kill himself, adding 'there is but one way out… you better take it before your filthy, abnormal, fraudulent self is bared to the nation.’

Popular then.

Bit harsh on Henry VIII.

The first paragraph reminds me of when I was a young boy - I'd write Adolf Hitler's name all in lower case - adolf hitler - because I didn't think he deserved capital letters.

By the age of about 10 my animosity had worn off and I afforded him the correct A & H.
