GATES IN HEAVEN HELL IS WHAT YOU SEEK HELL HAS NO BORDERS

TRAITORS NANCY P & DONNA BRAZIL PLOTTING TO MURDER PRESIDENT & VP OF USA THEY KILLED SETH RICH

I’m betting he didn’t criticize him.

Dr. King often quoted the words of Jesus to promote his message and ministry of love and peace to end racial injustice & hatred. Pence says he's a Christian. Funny how he misused Dr. King's words to justify a wall rather than use the words of Jesus to promote love for neighbor.

Martyn was my brother's name, our surname King, both would have died to save their family, both would have bravely refused the drumbeat of politically correct, open borders fools, who think the bad guys will kill them last if they keep the gate open for them, bridges have walls!

It's a shame he was put in that position

'You have heard it said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you'....Jesus Christ (Matthew 5:43-44)

'Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice every where ' Martin Luther King Jr.

Pelosi is showing America she is equal to Trump by keeping government shut down. Trump did shut it down. That's a fact. Pelosi is keeping it closed. That's is also a fact. Trump had a purpose... To secure the border. Pelosi ... Secure Trump and politic for 2020.

I agree but why do we care bout what his son thinks

MLK Jr. Was a Democratic Socialist by today's standard. He wanted to build communities and bridges to equality. A wall is antithetical to everything Dr. King ever said, wrote or did in his life. Pence is as bad as Trump when it comes to lying and political opportunism.

Not cool at all Vice President. Not cool

It's wrong to use a dead man's ideals to justify your cause. KyloR3n

Obama has a gated fence that looks pretty sturdy and that's a good enough case for me.

His words are history. Unless everyone is banned from using them, then they are available for anyone to quote. If someone seeks to disagree with their usage, fine, but don’t forbid access.

They use any tool to achieve their goal and building the stupid wall They won't at all

Ron Reagan criticized Ronald Reagan. Nobody will remember the son.

No walls but Bridges.. collaboration is key!

Comparing MLK with Trump seems like a slap in the face to the civil rights movement.

MIKE PENCE IS SO USELESS AND IRRELEVANT, HE RESORTED TO USING A HERO TO BOOST TRUMPS BASE. SO SAD AND STUPID. HOW DARE YOU MIKE PINKY PENCE. USE YOUR OWN MERITS TO......OH, WAIT..YOU DON'T HAVE ANY. STAND DOWN!!

....WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE REPUBLICANS !!!!... ....WHEN YOU DANCE WITH THE DEVIL...YOU BECOME 'ONE'.... ....SAD...SAD...TIME FOR AMERICA..

So what?

Trump doesn't even know what democracy means. Pence

The message of MLK is totally missed by today's leftists. Instead of 'love your enemy' they truly hate Trump and his supporters.

But it's okay to dress or play like an indigenous person for the women's march to protest Trump? Whatever suits you at any given moment Liberals

The best strategy to prevent unemployed Mexicans crossing our border is to invest in Mexico and help its people get employed.

COME ON CNN I NEED TO HEAR FROM THE “PRO MLK ASSASINATION” people

MLK was an inspiration, incredible man, a legend. Trump is just an as*hole. Spot the difference. NotMyPresident

Why is this guy who can’t control how many hamburgers he eats my moral guide?

Like WOW!! OMG🔥 🇺🇸🌍📡💞 🔥

He is just his son. Not important what he says.

Martin Luther King Day: Life and times of the civil rights iconTo celebrate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Newsweek has selected key images from the remarkable life of an American icon. Al final los negros estan'peor'que antes😨con la'competencia'de chicanos😨y chinitos😲 matadoreltiempo duele muy en el alma saber que King como muchos otros que pensaban tan hermoso,cayeron asesinados por la intolerancia y la manipulación del 'poder' As an Adulterer, fake Doctorate, no Seminary education, Racist, etc., he's certainly a fine person to look up to. Rather vilifies truly great Black leaders. Harriet Tubbman for example of just one of many QUALITY Black people. I have a dream also.
