"White Supremacist Uses Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as Defense for Why Confederate Statues Should Remain in New Orleans"
An advocate of white supremacy named Don Drumpf, who heavily resembles current President Agent Orange, used the words of Martin Luther King, Jr. to defend unpopular confederate statues as they were being removed in New Orleans. When asked why he doesn't want to see the statues removed, Drumpf stated, "In the words of the great Dr. King, '"I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate.'"
It appears that Drumpf did not do actual research to know what Dr. King meant in that quote from King's infamous Letter from a Birmingham Jail. The fact that Drumpf, a white supremacist, used the words of Dr. King is baffling in of itself. Furthermore, the quote he used had absolutely nothing to do with supporting the unpopular confederate statues. Still, the man with a striking resemblance to President Agent Orange ranted about how Dr. King was against the blacks and would continue to be against them now because of their so-called, "rioting."
"Dr. King would hate the Black Lives Matter Movement," Drumpf shouted. "He was against rioting."
In reality, Dr. King once stated, "a riot is the language of the unheard," a statement that is in direct contradiction to what Drumpf shouted at reporters.
"He's as dumb as the president," one anti-confederate protester commented after Drumpf walked away. "Maybe they're twins because neither seem to know much about U.S. history and both believe in an alternative reality."
