New Job for MLK's Daughter

“I know in my sanctified soul that [Dr. King] did not take a bullet for same-sex marriage.”

I think she meant "sanctimonious soul". It's an easy mistake.

Obviously Mr. King did not spend enough time teaching his children the meaning of love and acceptance. But then, as we have seen in the past, he wasn't really that good at teaching these principles to the rest of the AA's, either.

LOL. So true.

What the f*ck is she trying to say there, anyway?

"Because my father did not make same-sex marriage his life's highest priority, it doesn't deserve to happen"?

Dr. King had another, perfectly worthy and noble, goal that he devoted his life to and took that bullet for. His daughter is, regrettably, determined to play Oppression Olympics with a side of logic fail, suggesting that since he did not prioritize advocating for same-sex marriage (decades before it even appeared on OUR radar) equally alongside his crusade for racial equality (which already took up the vast majority of his time, energy, and efforts), he must have been opposed to it.

I call bullsh!t. Not takin time to support something when one's life is consumed with supporting something else does NOT equal even so much as dislike of it, let alone enough hatred and selfishness to go out of one's way to deny people something that significantly matters to them.

Dr. King was a brilliantly compassionate, empathic, unselfish man who gave his life (in both senses of the word) in service of the concept that people deserve security from having their lives defined by other people's prejudices.

That's all *I* need to have faith that he'd be on our side today.

His legacy may have just ended.

seriously....this woman is a FRAUD to her dad's name & legacy....USING religion to discriminate against LGBT Americans / when it was USED against Black Americans and achieving thier Equality!

Both in the homophobia and in the lack of support for economic justice, much of the dream has been left behind, and not just by this daughter. It only calls on the rest of us to work all the harder.

Corretta King was for gay rights. This daughter is a disgusting homophobic monster and I believe so are his sons.

the ONLY Juggernaut I know of coming from the LGBT community is to be treated Equally - Like everyone other Tax paying American citzen....thats it, no more,no less. Gay people aren't asking for anything that no one else already has,and Takes for granted.
