Canadian Cynic Versus Five Feet Of Fury

CC forget, I give him the benefit of the doubt, to include the shortcut to the info that FFF posted.......the shortcut is http://www.vdare.com/Sailer/050116_mlk.htm

There's ignorant ...

And then there's Five Feet of Crazy™:

I can't pretend to care about Martin Luther King Day. Sorry.
"The truth is that King advocated 'compensatory' hiring of blacks. Overall, he was a conventional Sixties Socialist. He subscribed to most of the leftist nostrums that did so much damage to blacks — above all, boosting welfare payments to single mothers (the black illegitimacy rate is three times worse today than in the mid-1960s) and going soft on crime (despite the Sixties' crime wave and baby boom, the number of inmates fell from 212,000 in 1960 to 196,000 in 1970).

"These were disasters for the black community that only grew worse all the way up until the mid-1990s."

So in honour of Dr. King, two of my favourite quotes, which describe the catastrophically stupid, spittle-flecked ravings of Five Feet perfectly.

He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. – Martin Luther King Jr., "Stride Toward Freedom," 1958

Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity. -- Martin Luther King Jr., "Strength to Love," 1963
