John Lewis s no civil right icon, he's just one of the manuplitive racial assholes in congress that victimizes his own race for personal gain. I hope the asshole croaks.

John Lewis risked his life to fight for justice and freedom. He was at the forefront of the Civil Rights Movement ......a revolution without guns

He took beatings, death threats, prison, spitting....whatever indignity they threw at him and he kept coming back

Led the march at Selma and gave the speech before MLKs ......I have a dream

An American icon

Yep. Everything in US History pales by comparison to the Civil Rights Movement.
Civil Rights is but one part of our history. Members of our military are at the forefront of keeping our nation safe, and our emergency services personnel are at the forefront of keeping our communities safe. I won’t forget the cheap media stunt Pelosi and Lewis pulled when they marched through Tea Party rally...then lied and says he was spat on. News footage showed he lied.

 

[K9Buck]

Lewis doesn't care about "civil rights", although he may have at one time long ago. Once he got his foot in the door of wealth and power, however, his loyalty was to retaining his power and accumulating more wealth.

Just a thought, my friends...

If Crazy Bernie is such a civil rights leader why arent there more than 3 photos of him? Why arent there photos of him sitting at lunch counters having food thrown at him? Why arent there photos of him and John Lewis together? There are photos of John Lewis and MLK...

Very true and they are armed and trained to fight

John Lewis risked his life without a weapon. He took beatings, death threats, repeated arrests......all without fighting back

He fought for freedom and justice for millions of Americans

Too bad Lewis is such a supporter of bds since an Israeli company has developed a treatment for pancreatic cancer that has had spectacular results in the lab and is now in clinical trials around the world. Being a man of principle Lewis will boycott it, of course.
Israel's alpha radiation treatment shows 100% rate of tumor shrinkage

Agreed. The Tea Party stunt was not necessary. Lost some respect for him then. Hope he gets well. Don’t wish cancer on anyone.

I'd never wish cancer on anybody but progressives.....Nature appears to be on Trumps side...D.C. is improving slowly but surely, one way or another.

man of the people!

Baltimore was/is a disaster. Where was his fight for that city? Or Conyers for Detroit?

Lewis represents Atlanta, not Baltimore. but all blacks look the same to you i guess!

Yep. My mistake. All bald overweight black guys do look alike
