And I don't just mean Sharpton. What are we doing? How do we promote love amidst such hatred? One of King's nieces was on Fox & Friends this morning and she stated categorically that her uncle would be appalled at the things being done in his name; especially the photoshopped photo of MLK in a hoodie. Dr. King was all about EQUAL rights, not seperate rights. The NAACP and the like are all about division and agitation. It's bad for the people they CLAIM to represent.

Guest ninhao Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I was thinking - This isn't how Martin Luther King, Jr. would have dealt with this issue. And I don't just mean Sharpton. What are we doing? How do we promote love amidst such hatred? I think we consider prayer for both parties and do not despise either. Lord have mercy.

Ps 10:14 You have seen it: for you behold mischief and spite, to repay it with your hand: the poor commits himself unto you; you are the helper of the fatherless.
