King. This is still argued about. His killer, James Earl Ray, came to Britain to escape the law which is unusual for such a dumb red neck. I think someone else did it. It was a conspiracy. I don 't mean the killing. I mean arranged for him to come here after telling him "Britain..is a..faraway place ...not Memphis ...you must fly .. .in a plane " YOUR JUST BEING REDNECKIST! I am.The death of this wonderful man was a tragedy, from which America is still trying to recover. The fact that Hoover was trying to slander him because of his infidelity is so unforgivable, that I think Hoover 's image should be put on Mount Rushmore, in a dress, to punish all Hoovers for eternity, now that the great hypocrite has passed on. I have no problem with men wearing dresses, only those who hassle others about their private lives. Hoover and the FBI did it, as much as Ray.
I had always hoped that King, when he marched, had been protected by his faith and been serenely immune to earthly worry and personal violence. No, not only was he human in the sense of infidelity, but he was also, like a few other humans, frightened. He did not like being punched, stabbed and spat at. The recent death of the Civil Rights activist, Rosa Parks, reminded me of the importance of King 's work.
Despite his immense contribution though, he may have actually been even more help to the world, had he lived. His attack on the Vietnamese War was taking the fight beyond the borders and could have shown that the US screwed people everywhere, not just blacks at home.
No one was able to continue his work. Rosa Parks sat at the front seat of the bus and now American blacks can do likewise. However, the majority of mankind still has to sit at the back. MLK ...RIP.
