Death Of The King! [NSFW]

45 years ago, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. on his way to lunch and protest march was gunned down by an assassin. The death of King brought to the nation to the grips of racial unrest.

King was the prominent leader of the African-American civil rights movement and Nobel Peace Prize laureate who became known for his advancement of civil rights by using civil disobedience. He was assassinated at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee on April 4, 1968, at the age of 39. King was rushed to St. Joseph's Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 7:05PM that evening.

James Earl Ray, a fugitive from the Missouri State Penitentiary, was arrested in London at Heathrow Airport, extradited to the United States, and charged with the crime. On March 10, 1969, Ray entered a plea of guilty and was sentenced to 99 years in the Tennessee state penitentiary. Ray later made many attempts to withdraw his guilty plea and be tried by a jury, but was unsuccessful; he died in prison on April 23, 1998, at the age of 70.

King was booked in room 306 at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, owned by businessman Walter Bailey (and named after his wife). King's close friend and colleague Reverend Ralph David Abernathy, who was King's roommate in the motel room the day of the assassination, told the House Select Committee on Assassinations that King and his entourage stayed in room 306 at the Lorraine Motel so often that it was known as the "King-Abernathy Suite."

According to biographer Taylor Branch, King's last words were to musician Ben Branch, who was scheduled to perform that night at an event King was going to attend: "Ben, make sure you play 'Take My Hand, Precious Lord' in the meeting tonight. Play it real pretty.

At 6:01 p.m. on Thursday, April 4, 1968, while he was standing on the motel's second floor balcony, King was struck by a single .30 bullet fired from a Remington 760 Gamemaster.

The bullet entered through his right cheek, breaking his jaw, neck and several vertebrae as it travelled down his spinal cord, severing the jugular vein and major arteries in the process before lodging in his shoulder. By the force of the blast, King's necktie was ripped completely off his shirt. He fell violently backwards onto the balcony unconscious. Shortly after the shot was fired, witnesses saw James Earl Ray fleeing from a rooming house across the street from the Lorraine Motel where he was renting a room.

A package was dumped close to the site that included a rifle and binoculars with Ray's fingerprints on them. The rifle had been purchased by Ray under an alias six days before. A worldwide manhunt was triggered that culminated in the arrest of Ray at London Heathrow Airport two months later.

Abernathy heard the shot from inside the motel room and ran to the balcony to find King on the floor. King was bleeding profusely from the wound in his cheek. His SCLC colleague Andrew Young believed he was dead, though King still had a pulse.

The pictures are disturbing!

In some of these pictures will be Coretta Scott King, his children, Ralph David Abernathy, Jesse Jackson and James Earl Ray.

Obama Picks John Kerry To Succeed Hillary Clinton As State Leader!

Senator John Kerry (D-Massachusetts) was the 2004 U.S. Presidential nominee for the Democratic Party. He and John Edwards, then North Carolina senator both were handed a defeat by President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney. Kerry paved the way for Barack Obama to become the president. In 2004, Barack Obama, then a state legislator made a remarkable speech to the nation. He went on to become a U.S. Senator from Illinois. After a few years in, presidential aspects swirled around Barack Obama. In 2008, Barack Obama became the Democratic nominee and won the election comfortably.

The 2012 election went to Barack Obama and now he's looking forward to replacing members of his cabinet.

And now against Republicans, Barack Obama is looking for another round of battles in his second term. His potential pick Susan Rice didn't get through the gridlock. She was bucked by Republicans after her appearance on Sunday programs about the tragedy in Benghazi.

So what was left for the president?

Nominate the senator from Massachusetts, put the seat once again in a competitive race for the Republicans. This will be likely an easy confirmation by the Senate, although some Republicans and conservatives will try to revisit 2004 again!

Senator Scott Brown (R-Massachusetts) is reconsidering his chances of winning his seat.

Senator John Kerry is a fixture of the U.S. Senate. Kerry was born in Aurora, Colorado. He attended boarding school in Massachusetts and New Hampshire and went on to graduate from Yale University class of 1966, where he majored in political science and became a member of the influential Skull and Bones secret society. He enlisted in the Naval Reserve in 1966, and during 1968-1969 served an abbreviated four-month tour of duty in South Vietnam as officer-in-charge (OIC) of a Swift Boat. For that service, he was awarded combat medals that include the Silver Star, Bronze Star, and three Purple Hearts. Securing an early return to the United States, Kerry joined the Vietnam Veterans Against the War in which he served as a nationally recognized spokesman and as an outspoken opponent of the Vietnam War. He appeared before the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs where he deemed United States war policy in Vietnam to be the cause of "war crimes".

Kerry coined the term "SWIFTBOATED" as the conservative activists targeted him for his military service.

Kerry didn't fight against Swift Boat Veterans for Truth campaign. They single handed Kerry a loss and tarnished him as a "Flip-Flopper".

That continues among most candidates from Massachusetts. The only candidate from Massachusetts to win a presidential election is John F. Kennedy.

• Daniel Webster
• Robert F Kennedy
• John Kerry
• Ted Kennedy
• Michael Dukakis
• Mitt Romney 

George H.W. Bush born in Massachusetts. He was the Vice President of The United States under Ronald Reagan. Bush won his full term as president but lost reelection.

Congratulations to John Kerry. He will be a great addition to the Obama team.

Fox Nation: That Lazy N****r Van Jones Is A Racist Communist!

                           

Arianna Huffington is co-chair of AOL News and Entertainment. Her world famous blog The Huffington Post beats out conservative blogger Matt Drudge's The Drudge Report in a 4:1 margin. But that hasn't stopped the founder Matt Drudge and his affiliate website The Fox Nation. These news agitation websites attract conservatives, and likely white supremacists. These folks can't stand the first Black president and the guy they claim is a "devout Communist racist!" The Fox Nation comes forth with a picture that Arianna Huffington took with her iPhone. The picture of Van Jones, former Obama adviser sleeping in a pod at the AOL Huffington Post office.

Van Jones the co-founder of The Color Of Change is pushing forth a national boycott against Rush Limbaugh and Fox News. His organization allied with rapper Nas to deliver a petition to Roger Alies, the CEO of the company. Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity are notorious conservative agitators. They've pushed the bar lower when it comes to driving wedge issues between the president and the American voters. The liberal activist has been in the crosshairs of the conservative media. They were upset that Jones called the Republicans a bunch of "assholes" for the constant gridlock and desires to defeat President Barack Obama.

Civil Rights activist Van Jones.

Jones is a co-founder of three non-profit organizations. In 1996, he founded the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, a California non-governmental organization (NGO) working for alternatives to violence. In 2005, he co-founded Color of Change, an advocacy group for African Americans. In 2007, he founded Green For All, a national NGO dedicated to "building an inclusive green economy strong enough to lift people out of poverty." His first book, The Green Collar Economy, was released on October 7, 2008, and reached number 12 on the New York Times Best Seller list. In 2008, Time magazine named Jones one of its "Heroes of the Environment". Fast Company called him one of the "12 Most Creative Minds of 2008".

In March 2009 Jones was appointed by President Barack Obama to the newly created position of Special Advisor for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation at the White House Council on Environmental Quality, where he worked with various "agencies and departments to advance the administration's climate and energy initiatives, with a special focus on improving vulnerable communities." 

In July 2009 he became "embroiled in a controversy" over his past political activities, including a public comment disparaging congressional Republicans, his name appearing on a petition for 911Truth.org, and allegations of association with a Marxist group during the 1990s. For these issues, Van Jones was heavily criticized by conservatives. Jones resigned from the position in early September 2009."On the eve of historic fights for health care and clean energy, opponents of reform have mounted a vicious smear campaign against me," Jones said in his resignation statement. "They are using lies and distortions to distract and divide."

Jones is currently a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress and a senior policy advisor at Green For All. Jones also holds a joint appointment at Princeton University, as a distinguished visiting fellow in both the Center for African American Studies and in the Program in Science, Technology and Environmental Policy at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs.

A great man with achievements and all these conservatives could say is located below:

Typical Obama supporter, most of the time they're sleeping on our time, our dime, our property, I mean Obama himself treats the white house furniture like it's a barnyard when the cameras are around, just imagine what he's doing when they're not looking... so why would his bum buddies do any different.
I'd bet this guy shacks at the white house all the time. or anywhere that'll have him for the night.. ;)
And see how O treats our white house furniture here: Google this headline: Mr. President, Please Get Your Feet Off the Desk!

Too bad the rat b a s t a r d woke up.

This is what you've expect from those in the conservative movement. A bunch of reactionary bigots who think they know what it's like to be a "patriot"! Everyone who doesn't support their views are the enemy.

We really should be upset over how they type comments. They have the worst spelling and grammar mistakes by far. Yet, they know everything and if you tell them facts, they'll think it's a bunch of liberal lies.
