Coretta Scott King, Why all the fuss?

Coretta Scott King, Why all the fuss?

What’s the deal about Coretta Scott King?

If I see one more tribute to the dead wife of slain black leader Martin Luther King I am going to scream.

So what? She died, what’s the big deal? All this flying flags at half-mast for what reason? She was no national hero, She did nothing great, and her big claim to fame is her husband was killed.

Where were all the tributes when Jackie Kennedy died? Where was her body laid in state?

This is just more politically correct garbage; if she were white there would not be such a display.

How have we let America fall into such a place that we “honor” someone not for what she did, but for the color of her skin?

I ordered it on the internet. I paid $200 for it. And nothing has to 'happen' before it's used on me, it's just as much a part of our nature as being gay is to a homosexual. I don't know what your "limits" are, but I've certainly posted nothing pornographic, gratuituous, or lewd, and I find it funny that later in the same post you state...


I was only trying to be funny. But I thin I should stop since it seems that I am pretty bad at it. I have the tendency of finding humour in most things (not sad things) but it seems that only I laugh. That just might be a sign that I should hang up my microphone and work on something else.

Please refrain from telling me what I should or shouldnt post about in the future DJ, unless it's on one of your own threads, where you have every right to control the flow and content of the conversation.


I did that? Please point me to where I did that so I can correct it cause I would never do that. If I did I am sorry but I think it was not ment to you. But I'm not sure, please tell me where I said that. It must have been a mistake. I like your writing and would never tell you what to write. Oh wait. I get it. Duh. It was not ment in that way LW, I was simply trying to be funny which I seem to be really bad at. It seems that I have that effect on people and don't seem to want to admit it. Maybe I really should stop trying to make a joke even if it seems funny, I'm just not good at saying it. My bad. It was not my intention. I will try my best to stop myself from making any more jokes.

Wow, this is just an example of something I was thinking of making an article out of. I try to express myself and end up being seen as something I'm not. Man, for a guy who talks a lot I really suck at it. I'm starting to believe that blogging was a bad idea and that maybe I should have taken the advice that most people have said to me thru out my years to just shut up instead.

Sorry for being off topic here.

Some of us are willing to, (like myself, ChaosManager, Modman, ParaTed and probably many others) and some are going to want to simply 'give back' what they got. DJ, for example, still needed to let off some steam, but I wouldnt take it personally.


Your right LW, it's not that I will blow up everytime I see him post even when it's a good thing, I just like to make sure that when people like to dish it out that they are able to get dished at as well. I tend to believe in giving back and if you give me pain, I have no problem giving it back and sometimes, well maybe most of the time, I tend to give more than I recieve. Isn't that what it's all about, It's better to give than recieve?


for me I would rather live in peace here on joeuser, it's much nicer that way, but time to time everyone gets on someones nerves, yer a good one dj, you are welcome here on my blog anytime.

He certainly doesnt get all defensive, nor does He take offense.

You might try the same approach, cmorton. It would save you a lot of aggravation.


I get a little defensive time to time, maybe some lessons from simon are in order.

Hey cmorton why did you delete all your remarks? That makes no sense to ME>


I just wanted to erase some of the negative things that I said. it is just easier for me so I don't have to keep reading them.
I realize that what was said was said, but I am truly sorry for the way I behaved, rather embarrassed.

Cmorton:
This whole experience at JU has brought me back to earth with a crash, I just forgot what my momma taught me.


Since I'm also guilty of this at times (and not being one to hold a grudge), I'll give ya a cyberhug and consider it all part of the fun of blogging. (((((((((((((Cmorton)))))))))))))

you write well, but may I give you a suggestion? Use spell check more often. I had the biggest problem with people picking on my spelling and grammar till I started using it myself.
