How many Republicans are triggered by a national holiday that not only celebrates a black person but also a socialist?

"The evils of capitalism are as real as the evils of militarism and evils of racism." - MLK

"There must be better distribution of wealth and maybe America must move toward a democratic socialism." - MLK

"I imagine you already know that I am much more socialistic in my economic theory than capitalistic… [Capitalism] started out with a noble and high motive… but like most human systems it fell victim to the very thing it was revolting against. So today capitalism has out-lived its usefulness." - MLK

"Call it democracy, or call it democratic socialism, but there must be a better distribution of wealth within this country for all God’s children." - MLK

"You can’t talk about solving the economic problem of the ***** without talking about billions of dollars. You can’t talk about ending the slums without first saying profit must be taken out of slums. You’re really tampering and getting on dangerous ground because you are messing with folk then. You are messing with captains of industry. Now this means that we are treading in difficult water, because it really means that we are saying that something is wrong with capitalism." - MLK

    I, as a conservative, am aware that MLK was a closet communist (who worked with them), and he supported reparations and affirmative action.  Any conservative who claims MLK to be their own is stupid.

    MLK was also not morally conservative, he had sex orgy parties, was a serial adulterer, had an illegitimate child with his maid and would only have sex with white hookers to show his dominance.

    Skin color doesn't matter.

    I was told in 1976 that MLK WAS a card carrying Communist.

    but hey.... if this was about thinking instead of just being about feelings (again) you wouldn't even be here..... would you...?

    Source(s): Are you talking character today, or skin color?

    MLK jr spoke truth, that's why they assassinated him, if Americans woke up and realized socialism is not their enemy but rather the people telling them that it was their enemy all along.
