| #13 Broke before he started to funnel millions to his wife? Opportunistic crook. IRS attacks on conservatives cover up and the list goes on. Let the worms loose. |

| #11 But likely we see a son or Daughter pickup the Black-Guilt Flag soon and milk it for $$$, fame and power. Using daddies name. Alveda King on Trump's decision to create national garden honoring US heroes: 'I love the idea' |

| #4 He started by marching against Jim Crow laws and then the joined those who wrote those laws. The Civil Rights movement was a good thing, but like that guy said... "Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business, and eventually degenerates into a racket." ― Eric Hoffer Condolences to the family. |

| #3 Like too many of MLK Jr's circle, after MLK was murdered by a Democrat or on the orders of LBJ/Hoover type elitists. He and the Rev's started pimping Race for Fame, power and $$$$. By the late 1970's the MLK cause had been basically co-opted and was a Guilt based Blackmail shakedown scheme. My condolences to the Family. But likely we see a son or Daughter pickup the Black-Guilt Flag soon and milk it for $$$, fame and power. Using daddies name. |
