    Do you EVER wonder what MLK would think about today?

    All he ever wanted was equality. See me like a man not a black man. Give me opportunity and let me run with it!

    All we see is the dem party constantly making everyone a victim and moving the goal posts. I can only assume its because they need to drive wedges to drive voters?
    I am tired of everyone fighting with each other. This is all by design.

    My favorite MLK line is about a man being judged for the content of his character. MLK would be sorely disappointed in the current POTUS.

    Oh, you speak for him these days, do you?

    Do you have a seance when you want to hear from him, or does he just talk to you from the Aether?

    No I don't speak for him. I just interpret what he said. What is the Aether? Did you mean ether?

    I think MLK sought justice for the individual while today's social justice warriors seek power for identity groups.

    Despite his pretty pacifist pose, today's world of jungle chaos, extortion through rioting, mass murder, and mooching off White working people's taxes was the hidden dream he had all along.

    We won't live free until the Democrats, and their voters, live in fear.

    I believe King would have drifted to the hard left along with his party.

    No I don't wonder, and of course he would be a radical left wing commie. But if MLK were alive today, he would be keeping a lower profile than is Jesse Jackson.
