Dr. King family’s civil trial verdict: US government assassinated Martin Luther King

This trial happened in 1999 and this is the first time I've heard about it because of a media blackout on the case. This really shows how deep and dangerous the ties between media, government and corporations are. I'm dumbfounded.

The US government also hasn't provided any proof it didn't poison Napoelon Bonaparte... I suspect a plot!



The government killed Dr. King? Ok, I read and understood the paragraphs about the trial and evidence. I read Mrs. King’s and her son’s statement. I haven’t invested the time to verify how valid that information is. I’m not stupid, but because the implications of what that means is so disturbing, I’m going to deny anything about it could possibly be true as my first response. If I’m going to continue being in denial and refuse to discuss the evidence, I’ll attack the messenger.



Tin hat BS.



I'm baffled.
Yes @title.

The truth is... there is no evidence.  If you look over it... all the belief in that conspiracy boils down to is a quote.

"There is no way a ten-cent white boy could develop a plan to kill a million-dollar black man."

 

That's all there is to it.  People don't want to believe that a regular poor smuck could kill an important renowned figure.  However it happens all the time.

No actual serious historian or law enforcement official believes the conspiracy theory... they won a civil trial because you don't need a strong burden of proof to win a civil trial. 


I mean, why would Lyndon Johnson kill MLK?  That's just stupid.  Pass the Civil Rights act, but kill the leader of the Civil Rights movement?  The fuck kind of sense does that make?

Seriously what's the motive?



Goverment conspiracy? Cobra commander avatar? It time to call them in:

In the same time frame? Oh yes... nothing could save him, aswell as millions of other people.

Nowadays? Unlikely.

Its not like he could walk on water or something, so nowadays he wouldnt be a danger to anyone. People are smarter now.
