What we do know is that there are about 1.8 billion Muslims in the world, and even if 1% embraced terrorism that is 18 million violent people: These people who indiscriminantly kill in Islam's name simply don't exist in those numbers.

Even with the issues facing him, he rejected violence except for purely self defense at the end.

Jesse was a deeply involved FBI informant. He was the person who had King moved from an court yard facing ground floor room to the second floor exterior room facing the location of the fatal shot at the Loraine Hotel, among other details.

The person who posted that Malcom X quote, Boca Vista, is an ardent (“Trump or NONE!”) Trump supporter at a time Trumps party is controlling both houses of Congress, 33 state governors, and 32 state legislatures. Boca Vista’s hero and party have nothing on those 60’s “liberals”. <br />Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18259730262288807964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2890852736639676808.post-90964153480568838612017-06-03T12:31:12.339-04:002017-06-03T12:31:12.339-04:00And there is why Malcolm X was murdered and Jesse ...And there is why Malcolm X was murdered and Jesse Jackson lives to this day.

He cut through a lot of BS that MLK, for all his virtues, missed seeing. His writing, as this example illustrates, has a clarity that to my eye is reminiscent of Bastiat.JdLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00630104950043758864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2890852736639676808.post-42425017344062862072017-06-03T10:53:52.189-04:002017-06-03T10:53:52.189-04:00When I was a kid, my old dad, a seriously right-wi...When I was a kid, my old dad, a seriously right-wing Republican, and I agreed that Malcolm was absolutely right.
