“As the nation, Negro and white, trembled with outrage at police brutality in the South, police misconduct in the North was rationalized, tolerated and usually denied.”

“What have you got to lose?”
[/“When you guys put somebody in the car and you’re protecting their head, you know, the way you put their hand over, like, don’t hit their head and they’ve just killed somebody. Don’t hit their head. I said, you can take the hand away, okay?”

How do you know it’s not whatever makes you feel bad?

King didn’t like white libs. Neither did Malcolm. Neither do I.

Hey! I’m self-identifying as a black civil rights activist from the 60s.

Not true

Kind of true

Not true

Absolutely true.

Absolutely true.

MLK would have been ashamed of BLM.

Maybe some of their members actions but not of the movement as a whole

Even during the years of King’s movement… there were violent acts of protest. Don’t throw the whole movement out with the bath water.

It might well be, dear sir. Assuming Donald gets off on making others feel bad for his own pleasure.

Do you think that’s what he does to you?

The “movement” is the people and their actions. King detested violent protests.

I’m seeing some parallels.

I’ve had some disagreements with trump. I don’t really feel any particular way about a lot of the things you guys bitch and moan about.

He could achieve legendary status once this whole impeachment debacle is over though.

Do you imagine him taking pleasure from those disagreements?

He was for them before he was against them.

That doesn’t mean he would dislike the entire BLM movement. He would just dislike the violent factions of it.

Of X was more of the militant… so he would see BLM as a bit too tame

Never really considered it.

You trump haters are weird.

Curious, especially since this wasn’t about you but Donald.

Why did you make it about you?

I’m afraid it was Obama that used the I, I, I, I word when ever he opened his mouth.

That you say BLM are peacefully with a straight face say a lot.

He didn’t like white moderates.

This is cute.
