(34,648 posts)The Bus boycotts? Marches? People forget that MLK was no all peace on earthy. There were worksops that taugh how to deal with violence without returning violence, but the undercurrent of the movement was 'give us our right's now, or else'. Or else we won't support you businesses. Or else we will come into your shops uninvited and AGAINST THE LAW and DEMAND to be served or else we won'r leave. Then there was Malcolm X running around saying 'By any means necessary!" The establishment had no choice but to go Martin's way, else they might have to deal with Malcolm's way. The struggle continues. It was nasty as fuck and still is.
Basically you want gays and their supporters to be nice to bigots and not try to boycott them. The very idea pisses me off. So what they get donations from tired ass bigots? Bigots have been supporting bigots since the first humaniod stepped outta the trees. They stick together, so I know my place. Away from them. With my type of people.
