re: Would these style protests happen today under MLK's leadership?

The leadership starts with the local black pastors. Some are afraid to stand up for what is right for fear of losing the congregated. The black community responds to them. People like Sharpton and Jackson only fuel the divide.

If that's true, that movement is certainly damned. MLK taught spoke about bringing about change from a place of understanding and unity across all race. If what you say is true, this group (notice I didn't say everyone) is trying to bring about change from fear and intimidation.

Well, back in MLK's day, the interstate system wasn't blocked for starters...

---

Bloody Sunday in Selma was Sunday, March 7, 1965

The Interstate Highway System wasn't authorized until 1956, and no state had a complete Interstate system until 1974

So they weren't blocked because they weren't completed yet

However, US 80 that passes over the Edmond Pettus Bridge would've been a major traveled route at that time

The problem is those dumb fricks don't care. They're mistaking "equality" for "entitlement, preferential treatment and black supremacy."

If they truly cared about equality, they'd also address and acknowledge the fact that over twice as many whites are murdered by police annually than blacks, despite it being statistically proven that blacks are more likely to commit violent crimes and also accounted for 51.3% of all murders last year. As Clay Travis stated, based on the violent crime statistics alone compared to whites and Hispanics, blacks are actually being shot and killed less often.

I have read over a dozen reports involving even black cops murdering unarmed whites in cold blood (including the six year old white autistic kid), and yet these "equality" seekers strangely turn a blind eye to it.

Let's not forget almost 90% of all interracial crimes committed daily are black on white. Far more whites are murdered, raped, robbed and assaulted by blacks than vice versa. But again, strangely this is a non-issue to the equality seeking social justice shitheads.

So I refuse to take any of these people seriously until they learn the true meaning of "equality". I work in the film industry and I have been knocking out 14-18 hour days all week long in Gay, Georgia in the middle of the unbearably hot Georgia sun. My commute is almost an hour and a half away and we only get 8 hour turn arounds. Nothing kills the boner of knowing your bed awaits you after a long shitty day like hitting a stand still in Atlanta traffic because these entitled assholes think they're proving a point yet they don't know the true meaning of "equality"
