MLK Day, muslim styleQuoteTamerlan Tsarnaev was thrown out of the mosque -- the Islamic Society of Boston, in Cambridge -- about three months ago, after he stood up and shouted at the imam during a Friday prayer service, they said. The imam had held up slain civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. as an example of a man to emulate, recalled one worshiper who would give his name only as Muhammad.Enraged, Tamerlan stood up and began shouting, Muhammad said.?You cannot mention this guy because he?s not a Muslim!? Muhammad recalled Tamerlan shouting, shocking others in attendance.

have a good one

Have a happy one.Thx for all Monsieur Martin Luther King.

Happy MLK day

house negro

I was shocked and ashamed to read this storyfraternity expelled for celebrating Dr Martin Luther King's lifethat a fraternity is still not allowed to honor Dr King some 55 years after his death is just wrong

Happy MLK day

It is interesting that the FBI tweeted: 
Today, the FBI honors the Rev. Martin L. King Jr. and his incredible career fighting for civil rights. #MLKDAY
But they should share the letter the FBI sent to MLK threatening to blackmail him unless he committed suicide.

The US marines tweet:
Today, we celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. — a man whose fight for equality strengthened our nation. "A man who won't die for something is not fit to live."

While MLK was a non-violent, socialist who denounced US militarism and called the US “the greatest purveyor of violence on earth.”

Even the dotard at the white house tweeted about MLK while him and his KKK father were discriminating black people in their trump appartments.

All this is called revisionism and the rewriting of history, 50 years on.
