Not sure why you have a huge hard on against him..but tired of arguing. The man was working for equality which DID NOT exist...but you probably think that is BS too.
He was not lily white (intended) and obviously a huge hypocrite. But if we waited for someone who had nothing to hide before anything got done....
If the problem is we have a 'day' recognizing him then I agree with you...But then I think we should combine a lot of the Federal days and let each person celebrate whomever they choose....Be it MLK, James Earl Ray, your Pop (hope he is doing ok), Chicken, T. Roosevelt or Geo. Washington or Geo. Washington Carver.
Get rid of Labor Day, Vet. Day, Mem. Day, NYD etc. Leave Independence Day, Easter, T-giving, and Christmas..because we are all Christian and those are our holidays
Enough from me.
