Whenever MLK came to town you knew you either gave him whathe wanted or you
would have violence on your hands.
Hogwash. MLK advocated non-violence. But, MLK was not in charge of every
element of the Civil Rights movement.
He was a leader to many, but not a commander to all. If some members of the
community wanted to riot, MLK could not just issue an order and stop them.
Look up Bull Connor MLK and his marcher were not *allowed* to have a
peaceful march.
I think reading a little history might save you future embarrassment.

Gary Green,
All I can say is that you're one twisted puppy, or at least you're
dedicated to that direction.
A peaceful march that gets dogs, battans and boots set upon them is not
something that can be honestly be blamed as causal. But you choose to do
so, decidedly noting that the bee was already in their bonnet, almost
implying that it's their fault for just being their. Or is it for just
being?
And unrest? You're labeling that as riotous behavior? Disatisfaction
is grounds for stitches, casts and steel skull plates?
You miss all the colors in the spectrum save for the two ends. And even
then you try to paint both black and white in some perverse distortion
of gray.
Relative to Martin Luther King?
I didn't say he should die.
No. You said
That's why he had to be killed.
As in necessary, mandatory, no option.
And as for your exactly? Don't get carried away with yourself,
thinking that you can snip and twist what I've written so that it
appears to be in accord with your peculiar beliefs. When I wrote
Something about having a foot in the middle of
your back just doesn't cotton too well towards
the idea of peace.
I meant it literally. Doubtful that even your well-honed mind would sit their
calmly with a trained police dog munching and shredding your leg while Billy
and Joe Bob smash everything in swinging distance of a battan, inclusive of
your spine.
My bet is that you take great joy in this little game your playing, a useless
drain on other people's time and almost a complete waste, other than exposing
how singular your focus is, or that it's just chain jerking that you're about.

Violence at who's initiation?

Exactly. I'm saying he didn't lead a band of trained peace
protesters, there were those but not all. The majority were regular
folk, of whatever race, that were pissed that things were the way
they were and if they didn't see things progressing they were prone
to display their displeasure. When I read about MLK, I also read
about unrest.
That's why he had to be killed.
Excuse me? Advocating equality is justification for murder?
Let me guess..., I misunderstand what you wrote.
Todd Swearingen
Maybe. He was a proponent for change, for equality. In the great
scheme of U.S. empire building that comes contrary to profit. I'm
saying the same people that had Kennedy killed had MLK killed.
Justified? I never said that. I didn't say he should die. I said
that the powers that be were not about to leave him alive.
