LBJ or MLK

LBJ’s Great Society was the most racist government program ever.

In hindsight, the black community should have listened to Malcolm X.

I think MLK is the safe black hero. X was the guy who really cared.

What the fuck do half the articles you post in other threads have to do with anything…of course other than hating America that is.

What in the fuck did this post have to do with this thread?

Lizy made a valuable point. Plenty of great men do shitty things. Ben Franklin barely ever woke up before noon and loved Hookers. Was he an evil lazy sumbitch?

Did you misspell Lixy’s name on purpose? Is that some sort of gay bashing? Shame on you…(j/k)

Its just disappointing that an icon has deep character flaws.

Now ‘Dr.’ King, of course, has been shown to have plagarized a lot of his doctoral dissertation. He also cheated on his wife A LOT. A former assistant director of the FBI alleged that ‘Dr.’ King would beat white prostitutes while screaming, “I’m fucking for Jay-sus!!” which seems kind of wierd but …wtf…

What’s King’s doctoral dissertation or promiscuous sex life have anything to do with his activism?

Didn’t see that one coming.

Point is, how about addressing the question asked instead of relying on a one liner said by Anonymous Joe, as if that ends the matter.

I am genuinely curious, though.

I am glad the big lug is back. Time for some flaming newbs.
