Is it wrong to joke about MLK?

[renard_ruse]

Is he really sacred, and above jokes or humor? If so, why?

Should there be a law making it illegal to speak in unreverential language about King?

What if someone put King's image in a jar of urine? Would that be considered art? If not, why not?

It's "racist" to work on MLK day...

The marchers briefly gathered in front of the bank, then tried to enter. Moments after the group arrived, Patrick Brown, director of the Burlington Multicultural Resource Center, said he would hand leaflets to bank tellers protesting the bank’s hours Monday. The leaflet read: “Dear TD Bank, you are defying the King holiday. Shame, Shame, Shame. This is a racist act. Shame, Shame, Shame.

However, two male bank employees stopped the demonstrators as they tried to enter the bank. The employees refused to take the leaflet from Brown, then locked the doors.

I don't think so. After someone has been dead for a few decades what else are you going to get out of them but a few jokes?

There's not an godly reverence for Dr. King- I mean, he was a preacher who got shot coming out of the hotel room where he was fucking someone who wasn't his wife. He was human.

You make a lot of posts that I consider odd. And when I can call you odd... you might be in pretty deep.
