He was hit by a bullet?
Racist hate filled white guy was racist and hate filled?

l want to discuss it .vote please ,thanks..
MLK was killed during a time of racial turmoil, where blacks were daring to demand equality and a rather significant segment of the white population had no intention to give that to them. Assassinating opposition leaders, be they presidents, presidential candidates, or civil rights leaders, was a quick way to deal with the situation. I'm frankly surprised that more black civil rights leaders weren't murdered during the chaos of those days.
Goodness. A rather significant segment of the white population had no intention of giving blacks equality? I didn't know that.
leaders like Mlk wouldnt have to fight for it if they had

So you believe the appauling action of the Birmingham Police and Fire Department means the majority of whites in the US were opposed to equality for Blacks?
I don't think it has to be a "large majority" to be a significant segment. I don't think there's any question that there was a significant segment that did not want to see equal rights for black people. I don't like that that's true but there's no use splitting hairs or denying it.
no. but a small group of vfocal anatics can overrule the opinion of the moderate majority into silence.
