I have been listening and following closely to the "protesters" who are tearing down monuments of immoral people across the Country.
Washington and Jefferson... Slave holders. They have to come down. Teddy Roosevelt.... a white guy who fought in the Spanish American War. Clearly anti-Latino. Gotta come down. U.S. Grant.... I'm not sure, but he's a white guy. The statute has to come down.
And that brings us to MLK. He was a man of God who happened to be a serially adulterous. I mean Mike slept with a lot of women....and I mean a lot of women, but unfortunately only one of them was his wife.
So by the logic of the "protesters" doesn't MLK's monument have to come down? He was clearly immoral. He violated his vows as a Man of God.
What do you think?
I won't play that game. I know he was an adulterer but he also was important to making our country great. just as Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Grant and so many others.
King won't be remembered for his ladies, just being a great man. Keep all statues and learn why they were important. White, black, Union, Confederacy, veterans and patriotic Americans. Learn our history so we don't have to repeat the mistakes.
