        the idea that *any* action "deserves" death is beyond me. there is literally no reason, ever, to say someone brought death on themselves. let alone because they fought for human rights.

        People like Shaun King want us to hate, they want us divided, they thrive and live off hatred of others. They claim to have your best interests in mind but when you look harder their core message wants this divide. Don’t let him or others win ..we are better than this!

        31 percent is an underestimation to that era . around his time of death 65 percent of Americans viewed Martin Luther king Jr negatively . the whitewashing of his character in the decades that followed made people who absloultly would have detested him quote him .

        Here’s Shaun king saying something he can’t prove... applying it to today, with no documentation, because he likes to demonize people he doesn’t even know.
