Would Martin Luther King Have Supported The ‘Black Lives Matter’ Message?

Downtrend 

 
"If you’ve been paying attention to the racial outrage lately you may have noticed that black activists and their guilty white liberal sympathizers consider saying “all lives matter” as extremely racist. The Black Lives Matter movement insists that black people are being exterminated in this country by whites so to even suggest that all life is precious undermines their plight. This is of course insanely stupid, but as you will soon see the intelligence level of this debate just took a nosedive.

"Because it’s so hard to convince rational people that it’s not racist to say the lives of one race of people are more important than others, The Other 98%, a socialist “Occupy Wall Street” type group, published a meme on their FaceBook page they hope will simplify things. Take a look:
. . . 
  . . ."why don’t we look at what MLK actually said in the “I Have A Dream” speech:"
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.”
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
"Black Lives Matter seeks to create inequality by favoring one race over the others. Black Lives Matter destroys brotherhood by dividing people along racial lines. Black Lives Matter begs for people to judge them on the color of their skin, not the content of their character." . . .
