    Maybe in this instance but don’t get confused, Kirk has said many times MLK is a bad person and what he did was terrible. There’s tons more if you just go looking but just for starters he said:

    “MLK was awful. OK? He’s not a good person. He said one good thing he actually didn’t believe. Go research MLK, you should go research him.”

    When asked if it was true that when he was younger, he used to describe MLK as a hero and a civil rights icon, he responded simply:

    “That’s true, and I used to be wrong.”

    Regarding the Civil Rights Act that MLK famously pushed so hard for:

    “We made a huge mistake when we passed the Civil Rights Act in the mid-1960s.”

    Again this is just a bit. Go digging and you’ll find much much more.

      makes sense, Kirk was a POS and is looking up at us from hell right now. Good riddance.
