I see a lot of people writing things about bands, genres, etc...
well here's one of, if not THE, most ignorant things I've ever heard.
This guy who works right near my work and comes over a lot to say hi walks in. It's Martin Luther King Jr. day. He says...
"Hey...you guys not celebratin 'Black Monday' huh?? (laughs) I'm no huge fan of that guy...everywhere he went, they rioted. Those people, his people...always rioted every time he came to a town. I tell you, that guy whoever shot him, did his country a service."
THAT was the most ignorant thing I've EVER heard...someone claiming the foremost leader in NON VIOLENT protest and civil right in the US incited riots wherever he went....last time I checked turning police dogs and fire houses on peacefull marchers wasn't considered rioting.
Normally I like this guy, he's in his late 70's, rebuilds Harley's, went skydiving for his 70th birthday. I was so livid I just bit my tongue and walked out of the room because I didn't feel like getting into a heated argument at work with someone I see practically every day.
