    Once again, some of this was revealed by Ralph Abernathy so we have known all along.

    If the FBI file was unsealed as it should have been, there would be no national holiday for that pedophile.

    Ralph Abernathy published a book in 1989 that substantiated the previous FBI accusations about King's marital infidelity. Reagan chose to ignore the files in 1983. It is doubtful that MLK was a Christian but a liberal theologian at best.

    I read about this a long time ago in "Billy Graham and his friends", by Cathy Burns. The appendices notation for that book took up several hundred pages alone!

    I also was able to garner some other information from IFB S. Anderson, "Marxist Lucifer King" 'documentary', as seen here:



    Not that I recommend everything said person has to say in other areas, but I kinda like him inspite of his many flaws in doctrine and mannerism and desire even him to come to a knowledge of the truth, but I can never get him to take time with me, even though he has plenty of time to get things wrong about us.

    I will agree that everyone has flaw - and that no one is perfect - but when it come to rape - there is no justification!

    "Instead the holiday provided Reagan with political pretext to silence the mounting criticism of his positions on civil rights. By 1983 Reagan faced an onslaught of criticism from groups such as the NAACP and the Urban League for his aggressive assaults on affirmative action and court-ordered busing. With a reelection bid on the horizon, he began to make more concerted efforts to pacify his critics and soften public opinion over his open hostility to civil rights. The King holiday was the primary component of this effort."

    Anyone want to bet whether the tapes involved will be released in 2027 as scheduled as per the article? Maybe Trump should direct the AG to unseal them before he leaves office?

    Do you think that Reagan was that cold-blooded? Reagan acted early on considering that the first priorities were the broken economy and rebuilding the military. He did what Carter failed to do as far as MLK goes. As for Trump, he has twice invited young black Republicans to a major White House reception and that part of the GOP is very enthusiastic about Trump.

    I doubt if those records will ever be released. Some say that the FBI supplied the special gun for the assassination and there are all sorts of strange things about the event that have never been explained. Everyone knew at the time that King had spent the night with some white prostitutes. I think that we just have to move on and forget about it. There is no way that a national holiday can be undone and I don't even think myself that the name of it can ever be changed.

    Yea, but I wasn't talking about 'king' (deplorable, despicable) and merely a tool being used by others; I was speaking about IFB S. Anderson. :)

    The FBI has been spying on people waaaaaaaaay before Comey.

    Yes, I wish he would release all the MLK files, as nasty as they may be. This is a PC beyond reason political climate, but this revelation, if true, is something that clearly "disqualifies": MLK from any kind of moral authority., laughing over a real time rape. And the FBI just sat there, eavesdropping? I know they sent him a letter telling him he might as well kill himself, what a thing to say to an ordained minister, even if he was a big philanderer, and MLK certainly was. Abernathy, no big liar, said MLK was with two hookers the night before he was shot and that was par for the course for King.

    But I'm not so sure about him and the rape cheering - the guy who wrote this is the kind of writer that will say anything to sell a book and he wrote one years ago about King that just about turned him into a saint. Garrow says this but the word of a self-described "democratic socialist" professor doesn't cut it. Those files need to be declassified.

    Thanks!

    A guy named Anthony Brian Logan said on YouTube that Malcolm X worked as a homosexual prostitute. Cubans accuse JFK of rape but nothing is done about it. A prominent Indianapolis homosexual Gary Welsh said that Obama was gay. Bill Clinton does not seem to have been harmed by charges of rape as rhe Russia,s gave his foundation in Little Rock $145,000,000.

    Muhammed honeymooned with his 9 year old bride and Muslims say that is okay.

    A lot of old codgers marry underage girls in Utah and other Mormon strongholds.

    ICE cannot stop the sex trafficking of children at the border because Democrats are taking money from Mexican gangsters to not reform American law.

    We are forced to let them in and tell them to come back in ten years for a hearing, which they never do. Obama put them in cyclone fencing and then the Democrats accused Trump of doing that. DNA tests show that about one third of the children are being trafficked in that they are not related to the adults that they are with. The border needs to be shut down because we cannot process these people.

    You know all that. In your state you won't even let people pump their own gas.

    Here's you:

    I like not having to pump my own gas, especially when it’s snowing or raining.

    Having someone pump my gas for me is one thing I enjoy about traveling through New Jersey. This in contrast to the traffic, tolls, and other annoyances.

    Imagine the mayhem if Jersey dwellers were turned loose with gas pumps! It wouldn't be pretty.
