What is the consensus of how MLK Jr actually died?

[hoodheronova]

Was it the government, cointelpro, or white racists

 

[Tapp]

shot by the gov, pleh'bow or the gov sponsored the assassination

 

[YeLovesBoston]

The government set up his assassination and used what's his face as a scapegoat

 

[the cac mamba]

yea i agree the powers that be took him out. i highly doubt some disgruntled white dude just got the drop on him and that was that

i read he was preparing a sit in until the gov took the 30 mil a day they were spending on vietnam () and redirected it domestically

All 3 of those overlap. Even Hoover/FBI was trying to get MLK to kill himself. And when he wouldn't do it, they had to take more drastic measures. Forces that be popped a sitting President, you think they wouldn't hit him also?

Government. When he started speaking against the Vietnam War he signed his death certificate.

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

Ive heard so many white people say that James Earl Jones killed MLK

they legit dont realize what they just said most of the time.

 

[Robert Trejo]

I heard that he got assassinated because he started going at the military-industrial complex and labor issues. It makes sense too, cause one thing you can't do in America is fukk with people's money.

 

[Entrapta310]

“Our nation was born in genocide when it embraced the doctrine that the original American, the Indian, was an inferior race. Even before there were large numbers of Negroes on our shore, the scar of racial hatred had already disfigured colonial society. From the sixteenth century forward, blood flowed in battles over racial supremacy. We are perhaps the only nation which tried as a matter of national policy to wipe out its indigenous population. Moreover, we elevated that tragic experience into a noble crusade. Indeed, even today we have not permitted ourselves to reject or feel remorse for this shameful episode. Our literature, our films, our drama, our folklore all exalt it. Our children are still taught to respect the violence which reduced a red-skinned people of an earlier culture into a few fragmented groups herded into impoverished reservations.”

this quote right here made white men mad.
the realest shyt ever written is above.
