making this guy one of the most dangerous fools in the world
What is amazing about the man is how he led peaceful protests to make social changes come to fruition. All this while "people of color" were still being treated like animals in some places in the United States.

thanks, Shoe.
Wow! The crazies on the far right and the crazies on the left should form their own political party. I guess if you didn't have these lunatic fringes from the left and right, we wouldn't know what normal would be I guess.
Let's keep this to the memory of the great things MLK did for Black Americans and leave politics out of it.
Wholeheartedly agree.
agreed. Let's keep politics out of this thread.
This is meant respectfully, MLK did great things for all Americans. Opening the societal consciousness regardless of how painful is a gift. King and all those before him and after him of every color, gender and persuasion fighting against inequality, born from the very ethos of our nation, should be honored.
Had the opportunity today to collect food donations for a local pantry here in Buffalo. A small part to hopefully make a difference for someone in need.
It's more than a federal holiday folks. Go do something nice for someone toda.
