   When tyrants take control of a free society they always do two   
   things: they take guns from everyone and rewrite history. They   
   make the tyrants into national saviors and turn those opposed to   
   tyranny into thugs. This rewriting of history is happening as I   
   write. Martin Luther King, Jr. has been reworked, repackaged,   
   and remade into a secular saint by desperate people who can’t   
   argue the issue on its merits but must stoop to manufactured   
   mythology.   
      
   Recently, Oliver Stone dropped out of writing and directing the   
   much anticipated MLK film because the King people in Atlanta   
   rejected his script. They refused to permit the truth being told   
   since Stone planned to deal with “issues of adultery, conflicts   
   within the movement, and King’s spiritual transformation.” It is   
   incredible that honest people do not demand the truth, however   
   unpleasant, about their heroes. It seems that those who lean   
   left are basically dishonest people who will do anything to   
   preserve their myths. King’s family and other leftists are still   
   white-washing his image; after all, big bucks are involved as   
   everyone knows who has dealt with King’s family.   
      
   Since this is a national holiday, in the interest of truth, I   
   present the following incontrovertible facts about King. My   
   readers can then decide if I’m a racist or a realist interested   
   in truth.   
      
   King was a pinko: King’s very liberal biographer, David J.   
   Garrow, wrote: “King privately described himself as a Marxist.”   
   The Rev. Uriah J. Fields, King’s secretary during the early   
   stage of the Montgomery Bus Boycott, wrote, “King helps to   
   advance Communism. He is surrounded with communists.”   
      
   Liberal black newspaper columnist Carl Rowan attended National   
   Security Council meetings and was permitted to see confidential   
   FBI files on King. Rowan said that King was known to be a   
   Communist since May of 1962 when King’s name was “placed in   
   Section A …tabbed Communist” in the FBI’s files. William   
   Sullivan, Assistant Director of the FBI, concluded at the time,   
   King was “the most dangerous Negro of the future in this nation   
   from the standpoint of communism, the Negro, and national   
   security.” Sullivan was a major supporter of King!   
      
   King was a philander: Roman Catholic priest Richard John Neuhaus   
   said of King: “Dr. King was, for all that was great about him,   
   an adulterer, sexual libertine, lecher, and wanton womanizer.”   
   That’s from a friend!   
      
   King’s friendly biographer, David J. Garrow revealed to USA   
   Today King’s justification for his sexual immorality: “He [King]   
   explained it as someone on the road 27 days a month and needing   
   sex as a form of anxiety reduction and for emotional solace.”   
   Oh, well, that makes his adultery and betrayal of his marriage   
   vows and ordination vows acceptable–maybe even commendable!   
      
   An AP article should be a knockout blow for those who worship at   
   King’s image with its heading, “FBI and Abernathy Say King Was a   
   Sex-obsessed ‘Tomcat.’” That was followed with a graphic   
   description of King’s last night on earth. “The Rev. Martin   
   Luther King Jr. spent parts of the night before his   
   assassination with two women and then fought physically with a   
   third, according to the memoirs of the Rev. Ralph David   
   Abernathy, King’s top aide.” Preachers are supposed to “fight a   
   good fight” but King perverted that teaching–in spades.   
      
   Assistant Director of the FBI Charles D. Brennan wrote a letter   
   to Senator John P. East of North Carolina in which he stated   
   that King’s activities consisted of “orgiastic and adulterous   
   escapades, some of which indicated that King could be bestial in   
   his sexual abuse of women.”   
      
   King was a pervert: Black columnist Carl Rowan reported that the   
   FBI tapes suggest that there was a homosexual relationship   
   between King and his “best friend” Ralph Abernathy! Black talk   
   show host and columnist Tony Brown added more light on this   
   possibility when he reported on King’s banter to Abernathy in   
   one of their hotel rooms. However, it was so vulgar, I will not   
   even disguise King’s request to his “best friend.”   
      
   Martin was a prevaricator: The head of the FBI, J. Edgar Hoover,   
   said that King was the “most notorious liar” in America and also   
   said that “King is a tom cat with obsessive degenerate urges.”   
   King also lied about his name all his life; he lied to his   
   ordination committee; he lied to his wife; he lied on his   
   college and seminary papers; he lied in his books; he lied when   
   he said he fired Communists on his payroll; he lied when he said   
   that twice as many blacks died in Vietnam than whites. Hoover   
   was right.   
      
   King was a plagiarist: King stole from others all his lifetime   
   as was supported by King’s people in Atlanta! “King’s plagiarism   
   was a general pattern evident in nearly all of his academic   
   writings….We found that instances of textual appropriation can   
   be seen in his earliest extant writings as well as his   
   dissertation. The pattern is also noticeable in his speeches and   
   sermons throughout his career.” Note King’s family excused his   
   plagiarism calling it “textual appropriation.”   
      
   King’s biographer David J. Garrow states: “King’s academic   
   compositions, especially at Boston University, were almost   
   without exception little more than summary descriptions…and   
   comparisons of other’s writings. Nonetheless, the papers almost   
   always received desirable letter grades, strongly suggesting   
   that King’s professors did not expect more….” Why did they not   
   expect more? It is a fact that King stole 66% of his Ph.D.   
   dissertation! It seems Boston University wanted to give a   
   doctorate to an unqualified and dishonest man, therefore played   
   the game.   
      
   In his seminary papers, King reproduced the research and   
   writings of others but he also incorporated their many errors,   
   grammatical as well as theological!   
      
   King was a phony: In another paper King wrote that “the orthodox   
   view of the divinity of Christ is in my mind quite readily   
   denied.” He other papers King denied Christ’s virgin birth and   
   vicarious death and visible return of Christ. Martin Luther King   
   was an unbeliever! He was a phony preacher and phony Christian!   
      
   What would be the reaction if a national holiday were suggested   
   to honor a man, even a good man, who had past ties with the Klan   
   or Nazis? Would it not be expected that everyone would demand   
   that he answer some questions and his life be looked at very   
   closely? Why is King an exception? And why are conservatives   
   playing this game of whitewashing King’s reputation? Obviously,   
   truth is unimportant.   
      
   To sum up: There is no argument. As usual, I’ll be accused of   
   racism but it’s only the facts. King was a pinko, a philander, a   
   pervert, a prevaricator, a plagiarist and a phony. That doesn’t   
   bother most people but it does bother honest people.
