I've learned a new formula. Free thinker= excuse to spew forth hate.

I remember the time of MLK. Nothing but violence. Just like the Black Lives Matter people today. I wish people would follow his words of peace. Just like Jesus and Mohammad. But they don't. I don't play pretend like our politicians do. I'm not politically correct. I'm a free thinker. There's more to life than a dick up the ass phallussy!

On April 4, 1967, exactly one year before his murder, Dr. King gave a speech at New York City's Riverside Baptist Church, in which he said that "the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today is my country." Dr. King was not only referring to the inhumane treatment that African-Americans were experiencing throughout the US, but had also widened his critique of violence to include American foreign policy, which was on such brutal display in a very hot war in Vietnam, and through numerous overthrows of democratically-elected governments by our cold war CIA. It was this expanded analysis of the scope of American violence and hypocrisy, and his recognition of the connection of this violence to the profits of American businesses through the military-industrial complex, which directly led to his murder, as LBJ angrily removed Dr. King's secret service protection in the immediate aftermath of this speech. Sadly, the intervening 48 years have seen little change in regard to America's knee-jerk resort to force, a message that the protestors of Black Lives Matter are trying to impress upon an apathetic public.
