MLK



martin luther king, jr.

MLK
He died so you can call your girlfriend a “bitch” and a “hoe”.  He’s real proud of you.

(Martin Luther King, Jr.)

Sir, with all due respect about the use of language … :)

    Not funny in any way, really. Try again please!

  2. Dina says:

    Oh ffs.

  3. pittypat says:

    But you need a hoe to dig a ditch. And when did Harvey Milk die, anyway?

  4. ay dios mio says:

    Oh no

  5. UpTheYingYang says:

    This was done already.

  6. VictoryNotVengeance says:

    He died so that you could call your girlfriend whatever you and her are comfortable with and still be considered a human being. Lack of Civil Rights Movement understanding FTL.

  7. pittypat says:

    I’m real proud of people who haven’t learned how to say “really.”

  8. I think he rather died for MY RIGHT to call whomever I want WHATEVER I want…. and for your right to expose your stupidity to the world with such a not-fun, uncreative “discouraging poster.”

  9. PFFFFT says:

    The most sordid charges about MLK’s sex life, this one included, come from the FBI and can’t necessarily be trusted. But there’s no doubt about what one biographer calls King’s “compulsive sexual athleticism.” King’s attitude toward women was chauvinist and often exploitative. In his 1989 autobiography, And the Walls Came Tumbling Down, King’s close friend and fellow civil rights leader Ralph Abernathy writes that on the night before he died, King gave a rousing speech, had dinner with a woman afterward and remained with her till 1 AM, then came back to his motel to spend the night with a second woman. In the early morning hours a third woman came looking for King and became angry when she found the bed in the room he shared with Abernathy unoccupied. When King reappeared, he argued with woman #3 and wound up knocking her across the bed.
    Did he plagiarize most of his writings? He plagiarized a lot of them. An investigation conducted by Boston University, where King got his Ph.D. in theology, determined that he had appropriated roughly a third of his doctoral thesis from a dissertation written three years earlier by another graduate student. Curiously, the same faculty member had been “first reader” of both theses, leading some to wonder whether King’s faculty advisers at BU were incompetent or just guilty white liberals who gave a promising young black leader a pass. King also “borrowed” portions of many other writings and speeches, including the famous “I have a dream” speech he gave at the 1963 civil rights rally in Washington.

    Yeah, he was a really great guy…..

  10. liloaktree says:

    I don’t remember him as dying for anyone’s right to call anyone anything. Civil rights history fail?

  11. LOLWUT says:

    I think it’s sort of racist, to be honest. Not towards MLK, but towards all African-Americans. Like the guy who’s saying this says that MLK’s legacy was to create a negative racial stereotype, and he’s buying into it…

  12. pinkpet says:

    No, actually, he died because of racial insensitivity. Kindda like what’s displayed in this hyperbolic LOL.

  13. csplol says:

    Talk about hitting the nail on the head. The truth hurts.

  14. hm says:

    hoe = garden equipment

  15. Justacarolinian says:

    While visiting Memphis about 10 years ago, I took my sons down the river walk and downtown, checking out all the trolley stops. One of them is the firehouse, where they give tours. My 2 barely out of diapers sons got a toy firetruck and to climb all over the trucks and such.
    I was walked to the back of the firehouse, and shown a door, opening to face the hotel balcony where MLK was killed. They told me that a man came in there with a CIA badge, and set up at the back door. After it was over, they were told if they told anyone, they would go to jail. One of the firemen was an older fellow, and claimed to have actually been there when it happened.
    Now if that’s true, I don’t know, I just know that’s what they tell.

  16. gallegosaa says:

    What is he, Jesus?

  17. chris says:

    How has this got 4.5 out of 5 Lincolns?!

  18. gmc360 says:

    Bill Cosby ftw

  19. SITFO.org says:

    Err, isn’t this supposed to be ironic? Duh!

  20. Stephen says:

    this isn’t really funny, it’s just the truth. and i really like that i’m not the only one that notices this.

  21. bitter troll has discovered something, not everyone believes and loves jesus…but everyone believes and loves tacos…thus tacos rule over jesus

  22. waverly says:

    As long as he doesn’t call you a “rake” or a “trowel.”

  23. Maybe if you didnt act so much like a bitch or ho!

  24. cgray says:

    He died because a round from a 30-06 rifle smashed into his right jaw. Just after spending a lovely evening with a woman who was(cough) not his wife. He was a liar, a cheat, and a two-bit phony. He used his position primarily to pick up chicks. I sincerely doubt he would care what black men of today call their girlfriends.

  25. Not Racism, Just Truth says:

    Guns don’t kill people, dangerous minorities do ;)

  26. JinPachi says:

    i read milk at first, am i a racist now?

  27. snikrdoodl says:

    FYI – a “hoe” is a gardening tool. I’m pretty sure the word you were looking for is “ho”, which is short for whore. I doubt referring to someone as gardening equipment would really upset the late Dr. King as much as the poor spelling.

  28. Lena says:

    you guys might not like it, and it may not be PC, but the community voted for it to be here :\ So, whats that saying about your peers?

  29. Sinajax says:

    Geez…lighten up. This is a FUNNY page, remember. What a bunch of maroons.

  30. ILikePie says:

    Ah, why bother expressing my opinion at all? Unless it’s liberal, all it will generate is a million comments from liberals telling me I’m a moron.

    • Default User says:

      Can we get a conservative on this one?

      • Sure….I will boldly step forward and admit that I, too, like pie. Pie is damn good stuff. What this country needs is more motherfvcking PIE.

        Why, yes, I am hungry, Default. Why do you ask? ;-)

        • Default User says:

          I believe that is a campaign everyone can get behind! *offers Diss a slice of German Chocolate pie*

          • HelOnWheels says:

            If you’re handing out pie to everybody does that make it German Democratic Republic Chocolate pie (a.k.a. SOCIALIST!! pie)? ;-)

            • Default User says:

              It is, which is much better than Belgian pie, or even Walloon pie. Would you like some?

              • HelOnWheels says:

                Yes, please! *holds out several plates*
                Don’t worry about utensils; I’ll just stick my face right in there.

                • Default User says:

                  *counts eight plates, gives HOW a funny look and just hands her a full pie*

                  • HelOnWheels says:

                    Wut? It’s Socialist pie, I’m going to redistribute.

                  • justacanuck says:

                    Uh…..DU, that isn’t MY pie is it?

                    • Default User says:

                      No, I’ve been needing so many pies lately I’ve just started a pie sweatshop in my kitchen. Don’t worry. I’m paying them all an equal share of the profits! *does the math* Lets see ingredients -$486, revenue from selling pies $0 (maybe I shouldn’t have been giving them away?), split four ways, they each owe me $121.50

      • ILikePie says:

        Just look at past comments pages, my friend. If a conservative posts an opinion, a dozen liberals immediately jump down their throat and tell them they’re a moron.

        And now I shall sit back and wait for someone to say “That didn’t happen,” “That never happens,” or “Who do you think you are?”

        • HelOnWheels says:

          So, this is YOUR crap lolame?

        • Well, if you can’t take a little mocking, you should probably stay out of the Kitchen, says one of the conservatives. ;-)

        • Sure it happens, but the concept of calling someone a moron only happens when they post a comment ALL IN CAPS CALLING EVERY LIBERAL THAT EVER BREATHED COMPLETE AND TOTAL DOUCHEBAGS!!!!!11!!ELEBENTY!!!

          It’s the one’s that can keep it civil that get taken seriously.

        • And every time a blatantly liberal LOL is posted, a hundred conservatives and conservatrolls go absolutely haywire. To be honest, I think there’s a pretty good liberal/conservative balance here lately.
          Which I hate. ‘Twas more fun when us liberals ran the place.
          I’m not gonna say what you said doesn’t happen, because it does. But liberal comments don’t get off that easy either. And FTR, most of us here like pie, which is a bipartisan dessert, thank you.

          • keithybabes says:

            That’s a liberal whitewash as usual. Pie was invented in 1783 by Sir Frederick Pie, a noted Tory and gourmand, as a way of using up displaced peasants from his Scottish estates, and as a useful portable snack for his peasant-hunting trips. For a liberal to even LOOK at a pie is tantamount to treachery to the liberal cause. *noms Rando’s pie whilst he’s petrified with liberal guilt*. Say it ain’t so, sir!

            • Well, something we liberals specialize in is taking something conservative, and finding a way to turn it into socialism. *splits pie with everyone equally*.

              • Guy who always finds something to complain about says:

                I’m allergic to pie.

                • Bitter wino, the wine steward says:

                  Are you allergic to more liberal desserts – like ice cream?

                  • Guy who always finds something to complain about says:

                    Oh, I’m allergic to pretty much everything! Did I mention that I’m also vegan?

                    Don’t mind me, I brought my own food. You don’t mind the smell of fermenting grains mixed with kefir, do you? Oh, and while we’re sitting here, can I tell you a little bit about the extent to which you are killing the earth just by breathing? I’m trying to stop breathing. It’s a nasty, nasty habit.

        • Danbala says:

          It’s all in the delivery, and that goes both ways.

        • That DOES happen, and it also happens when liberals post opinions.

          However, it doesn’t happen all the time. Quit playing the victim and say what you have to say.

          Or do you really have nothing to say you just want to antagonise people into an argument with you so you can say “See ha ha I was right all along!”?

  31. ILikePie says:

    So when someone expresses an opinon you disagree with, do you actually debate with them or do you just mock them for holding said opinion?

  32. amz says:

    racism WIN

  33. ReligionIsDumb says:

    I’m not racist but….lol…I know…now no matter what I say, it is racist, but I am going to say it anyway. Martin Luther King WOULD be dissappointed with the ‘gangsta rap’ culture. He fought to earn African Americans the right to an education on par with that of white people. Now, the schools are desegregated and every African American has the same opportunity as a white student of comparable economic status. (Schools being funded by property tax sucks, but that isn’t a race thing..that is a poor vs. rich thing). However, “gangsta” culture has made education into a thing for white people. Now that they have the opportunity, many African Americans are socialized by this culture not to take advantage of the opportunity they now have. They willfully do poorly in school to avoid being a “wigger”. . . the offensive term intended to refer to a black individual that “wants” to be white. This label is typically applied to any black person that applies themselves in school. Furthermore, “gangsta” culture is retardedly mysoginistic and advocates criminality, violence and the flaunting of personal wealth via “bling.” MLK would have spoken out against all these things just as many members of the African American community do today. But sadly, the culture of gangsta rap continues to have an adverse effect on young people in this country…especially those of African American heritage who identify more closely with the rap personas. I think the captioners makes an excellent point that, while any “gangsta” you ask will tell you MLK was the greatest African American that ever lived, none of them actually espouse or practice any of the his ideals. Instead they seek to make mad money so they can get more bitches and hoes and anybody who gets in their way better represen’ or he is gonna get a cap in his a$$. MLK would not be proud of Tupac or Dr. Dre. Nor would he proud of anyone who emulates their gangster personas. In conclusion, the caption is not racist…it is poignant.

  34. Amy K says:

    Wow….crossing the line from funny to way racist!

  35. Christophe says:

    The person who made this up, has totally missed the point of MLK. He died for freedom, also the freedom of speech.

  36. Wow says:

    wow. this is unfunny and a bit racist and stereotypical

  37. Gorgias says:

    Thinly veiled racism in this forum is starting to get old.

    • dissimilitude says:

      Absolutely. It should at least have a tarp thrown over it.

      Know what we’ve decided is getting even older? Lols that aren’t actually FUNNY. Like this one.

  38. GAhn says:

    What? did he die?

  39. Sarah says:

    While not trying to promote racism, if you listen to alot of most modern rap it contiunues bad sterotypes, and seems to believe that neither the civil rights nor feminist movements happend. Racial/sexist slurs are never okay, I don’t care if you are whatever race your calling bad names, popualr music shouldn’t condone things we should have moved past long ago like assuming all women are meat for mens pleasure or that horrible names happen to still be okay.

  40. bltgsandwich says:

    Stereotyping fail. Implying that all black men and only black men call their girlfriends bitches and hoes.

    Try getting your observations from RL, not TV shows about crime and music videos.

    • Default User says:

      I call everyone bitch and I’m neither black nor male. Though I never have found good use for the term ‘hoe’ for people.

    • Miranda says:

      Actually, it’s not all on TV or in music at all. I live in Georgia, about an hour south of Atlanta, and there are TONS of people in my community that call their girlfriend a hoe and slap them and whatever. We actually had some people get in a fight one time at school and a guy slammed a girl’s head into a lunch table so hard she had a seizure. And yeah, they were black, but it’s not a black thing so much as a cultural thing, because there are a few white people who are exposed to this kind of thing too and it happens just the same with them.
      It’s not ALL black people and it’s not ONLY black people, but it does happen a lot with mostly black people.

  41. Jeff says:

    Not to mention calling all your friends “n****rs”, but that’s not politically correct.

  42. and jesus hated the love of money, what fuels this country…nobody is perfect

  43. Meh says:

    You know, I’d have a problem with the racism if it wasn’t pertinent and accurate.

  44. Captain K Falcon says:

    Lol, whoever made this must’ve read my mind XD

  45. bugaboo says:

    congrats this lol now has the most comments! fail..

  46. bah says:

    He didn’t die so that people could call their girlfriend a “bitch” and “hoe.” I bet he thought if given the chance people would have more class than that and appreciate how far they had come and not abuse it. I don’t think it’s right that so many people suffered and died fighting for equal rights and now we have people who are too lazy to speak right and can’t pull their pants up over their asses, but blame everyone else because they can’t get a decent job. That is wrong. So many people suffered to make a better life for others and instead of taking advantage of that and doing something like go to college, some would rather screw up their life and then turn it into everyone else’s fault. If MLK were alive today, he would be so ashamed.

  47. Peace Bringer says:

    I think that there is enough hate in the world. We should not add to it by making racsist remarks or relying on sterotypes. Your color or nationality should not effect the way you are treated and it should not be the only aspect that deifnes an individual. I beleive that is what MLK stood for. We are all human beings and we ALL deserve a bit of respect.

  48. Purple says:

    I thought he died cause of a bullet
