She took a poll, did she?

So she began from an assumption born of a lack of consideration, establishing a certain bias before she ever looked for something to confirm it.
Again, King is largely and mostly celebrated for his work in freeing his people from the yoke of injustice. He understood that being at the front of that movement could likely end with his death but continued until it did, as it had with more than a few.
One only assumes that he didn't. As to how people's beliefs can change and evolve, I noted Harry Truman once as an example of a man who went from Klansman to President without carrying that stupid baggage along for the ride. Look narrowly enough at anyone and you can form nearly any opinion you desire.
It's sad but telling that you think that's worth repeating, that she's black. And odd given how often you recite statistics painting people of that color in the worst possible light.
How many sermons did King deliver? How many did she have on hand? How many have you ever read?
Social justice? From the pulpit? Heaven forbid...wait, it doesn't, does it...
lain:So having attacked the seminal figure in that community you're now eager and ready to similarly distort and "examine" the race in this country? Will wonders never cease.
Because I just know everyone is waiting to find out why a black man would accept recognition from someone actively supporting the Klan and the genocide of his people...I'll wait while you keep running from that under thought attempt to taint gone awry.

So it's only a noteworthy, near virtue when the end game is to taint and harm?
There's not a pastor in any Christian church who could survive that practice, especially not a minister in his time and community.

No, I'd rather you get the first thing right before moving on...like answering that idiotic question you've run from since the first time I noted its irrationality. You know, this one:

I don't mind people noting flaws. But you need a context that encompasses, illustrates a real breadth of understanding and some measure of compassion/recognition that we all fall short, by a mile or by a step. Either way it's a chasm we can't cross without grace and that should carry a measure of gratitude. Instead, so many of us are like the man forgiven much, out shaking others by their shirt collars for the pennies we think they owe.
A knowing lie...so far so consistent.
:chew: Maybe you should have jumped in a lake?
:sigh:
Though in fairness there's no honest defense of much of his stuff.
Has he called you a guilt ridden liberal yet?
