    Love is the consistent theme throughout Martin Luther King Jr’s life: “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” 50yrs later, America still needs King’s message of love & unity. #MLK50http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2018/04/04/sen-james-lankford-honor-martin-luther-kings-legacy-by-engaging-people-who-are-different.html …

        Pretty words mean nothing. Actions speak louder than words, and your actions and those of your cohorts in the GOP are the opposite of those shown by Dr. King, and more importantly, by Jesus. You fool no one.

        Your idea is to share a meal at your home with a family of another race, then turn around to vote against their interests every single time is the height of hypocrisy. You seem to suffer from this malady on a regular basis.

        Democrats let the Daca down by refusing to deal. Repubs offered a more than fair deal. Americans Dream of not paying taxes on illegal foreign invaders. Illegals need to stay in their own country and apply the legal way.

        You do an op-ed on @FoxNews about engaging with love & not hatred. Have you heard what Fox News says? Their pundits attack victims of mass shootings, are fired for sexual harassment/assault, & for spread false information to push an agenda of hate. It is disrespectful to #MLK50.

        Yes, but also TRUTH was his consistent theme. He (accurately) called the "giant triplets of evil" in America: racism, materialism, & militarism. I'm pretty confident he'd kneel during the anthem. 50 years later America still needs King's message of TRUTH.

        So then, I ask you what are you doing in your life and your work to spread that message? Because from where I sit and what I see it's not that much? Please advise.

        Wait a second.... Republicans were silent when Trump mocked the disabled... said Mexicans were rapists, said Haitians have aids, mocked refugees on Easter Sunday..... I could go on and on. Please stop with the praise for MLK. Shame on republicans.
