Ted the Poster 0 Report post Posted January 18, 2005 I also find it ironic that on a day celebrating a black leader, people don't have to work... I don't find it any weirder than getting off work for LABOR DAY. It was a play on stereotypes, and... fuck, nevermind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here in Virginia, it's not just MLK Day - it's Lee Jackson King Day! That's Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson, by the way, for those of you who may have been giving the Commonwealth the benefit of the doubt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was King-Lee day in my younger days. There was something disturbing about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tell me that ain't fucked up. OMG RACIAL DISCRIMINATION! I personally wouldnt do it, but its a wonder they haven't had some pissed off white person claim it.

Guest HungryJack Report post Posted January 21, 2005 Robert E Lee was pretty cool. An admirable guy , I think. other than fighting for the rebs, but he wasn't pro-slavery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
