Maybe old Al Sharpton is right?
So today, but just for today, I assume shooting an innocent black guy or woman is off limits.
But if you're a cop, not to worry.
Remember those famous words from Scarlett O'Hara, "Tomorrow is another day!"

Happy Martin Luther King Day!

Oh, and by the way, no mail delivery, so no one stole you stuff.
There just wasn't any delivered.

MILDRED, OH THAT'S WHY....?

Hum Bug.

I and one other guy were the only people in the building where I work. My company does not give me the day off and I work at a government facility.

Happy Martin Luther King Day!

Why would there be a HAPPY MARTIN LUTHER KIND DAY thread? I'm confused...

Maybe we just didn't have the urge to scream it across this forum? Despite what you may think, most of us have lives that extend beyond the internet.

But, rage on, good internet warrior, rage on!

I'm not ethnically-challenged and I don't have the day off, so me no care.

Maybe this is a good place to post one of my favorite quotes of all time:

"And don't let anybody make you think that God chose America as his divine, messianic force to be a sort of policeman of the whole world. God has a way of standing before the nations with judgment, and it seems that I can hear God saying to America, "You're too arrogant! And if you don't change your ways, I will rise up and break the backbone of your power, and I'll place it in the hands of a nation that doesn't even know my name. Be still and know that I'm God."

-- MLK Jr, 1967

Exactly!

We want everyone to have the impression we are all backwoods racists!

If it makes you feel any better, I didn't create any Columbus Day threads either, nor cared about Casimir Pulaski on Casimir Pulaski Day (it's an Illinois thing).

I remember when Martin Luther Kind was shot by James Earl Jones. Sad times indeed...:(

Yeah, that's a real thing.

I actually just found out about this over the weekend. I have a friend who works for the state here in Georgia and he told me he gets off Robert E Lee day and Confederate Memorial Day. He told us that when he asked his predecessor why they get off Robert E Lee day the response was "well they get off their guy's day". I sometimes forget how racist the southern state I live in can be, and then I get a gut check reminder like that.

I think it is kind of funny that MLK day is the only black holiday and it is at the coldest time of the year. I spend the winter hibernating.

As taxpayers we should somehow get rid of all the government birthday holidays for former Presidents, Columbus, and MLK as well. Each holiday costs taxpayers about $500 million each IIRC

Which only goes to show that MLK was a fool. When did God smote Iraq or Iran or Syria or North Korea or Burma (Campuchea) or pretty much every other shit-hole country that was or is a billion times more horrible than America? That's right, never.
