US Government Found GUILTY Of Murdering Martin Luther King Jr.

True enough Buzz but in this case I don’t think we can use that for the prime reason for this.

I actually lived in the Memphis area for twenty years. Being just across the street from the foreign country of Mississippi, where I actually lived, I can tell you that this has more to do with prejudice than with us falling asleep. Even though Memphis has had a black mayor for years and years – King Willie Herenton, another story all by itself – knowledgeable African-Americans still have areas of the Magnolia State where they will not go because, as it was put to me, “That’s a Klan area.”.

When the above quote was made to me by my co-worker Fred it was because I had asked him about a road named “Ed Voorlich’s Head” where I had a delivery for the first time. Additionally, where I lived, a campground on the historic Mississippi, co-workers were invited to come down and party on the lake with the bosses and I. And while some did, our African-American brothers always declined because as one said; “They’s too many oak trees down there…” Years later I did discover that one of the higher ups of the local KKK did in fact have a cabin two campgrounds over. One white man who lived there started dating a woman of the darker persuasion and though he never heard a word about it, one night his cabin did in fact burn to the ground.

Being originally from Springfield IL and having played around Lincoln’s Home and Lincoln’s courthouse as a child, and having made Boy Scout pilgrimages to Lincoln’s tomb once a year this was all a shock to me. Whether we like it or not prejudice and even racial segregation is still alive and well in the South, they just don’t burn crosses on the lawn very often anymore. Sad, but true.

I don’t know why you keep bringing up appeals- I never said the word appeal, appealed or made any intimation that the finding in this case was overturned.

So when was the united states government on trial for the murder of MLK? Please cite your case here. Are you saying that you can be found guilty of murder without a murder trial now? Because I’m fairly certain the title of this video is “US Government Found GUILTY Of Murdering Martin Luther King Jr.” And yes, you are right about the difference of the burden of proof between civil and criminal trials. So you are admitting then that the evidence brought forth in this trial did not, and indeed was never meant to prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, that the United states was guilty of murder, right? That would explain why, in the transcript, the judge never says this court hereby finds the defendant, the united states of America, guilty of murder in such and such a degree. That would explain why there was no sentencing handed down to the U.S. Government. Because murder convictions are, necessarily, preceded by murder trials in this country.

“And it’s best not to believe…” blah blah blah you say, but comedians are always 100% unbiased? Excuse me, but the video itself ends with a promotion for “My other propaganda” which is an admission that this is in fact propaganda as well. I’ll just go ahead and assume that you don’t know the definition of propaganda so here’s the merriam-webster version: “ideas, facts, or allegations spread deliberately to further one’s cause or to damage an opposing cause; also : a public action having such an effect”.

Also, you mentioned earlier that you felt the DOJ report left out parts of the trial it “couldn’t explain”. I gave five examples of this video’s inaccuracy in my first post. Maybe you could be bothered to bring up one, single example of an aspect of the trial the DOJ does not satisfactorily address in it’s six-part report published on it’s webpage? Or any examples for that matter. At all. They’re commonly used to support arguments. Perhaps you’d rather have a nice, confined semantic debate about the word “debunked”?
