Dozens of American cities in recent years have removed war memorials to Confederate leaders.
Statues are gone. Plaques have been taken down. Streets renamed. Plazas given new titles.
It’s because it’s no longer politically correct to allow public recognition of someone who would not fit in today’s society.
But talk-radio host Rush Limbaugh on Tuesday raised a question that’s going to be uncomfortable for many.
“Quick question, ladies and gentlemen, should all the statues of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King now come down? Should all of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King boulevards throughout America be renamed?” he asked

BRING EM DOWN.
No - because we would have to take down Kennedy's. Same era.
What about the MLK birthday federal holiday?????????
hell yeah!!! What's good for the goose......
no
No.
He was just another thug!
Northwest Woodsman: And cancel that stupid holiday. There are many others much more deserving of a holiday named after them. 9:06 is absolutely correct. Just another thug. I used to actually report in for work on milk holiday just for that reason. Named a holiday after that thug just to appease blacks.
Absolutely yes, take down now.
Confederate Statues come down MLK's statues come down. Called equality
Bring down the statues, signs, and the holiday. Many more deserving people in this world.
Nothing should come down and things that were taken down should go back up. The conversation needs to be,when are we going to stop catering to whining, sniveling babies.
YES !!! Fair is fair. He was a lying piece of shit that screwed around on his wife and family. Enjoyed watching men Rape women, plagiarized his college papers, and fathered kids all over the south. Put up statues to Hugh Hefner and they would bring up all of his sexual escapades, so this creep needs the same measure.
Thank you 10:31. This all needs to stop. I am just afraid it is too late. Rules for Radicals. Read it
Absolutely they should come down, ASAP!
Wait a minute all you nay sayers. Are you forgetting the double standard that the liberals insist on? Not only the double standard but the far left is content to forget history because simply they can't handle the truth. Too much weed has clouded rationality and the ability to be subjective or cognitive. Rather than tear down MLK, put back historical significance that founded our country, good and bad.
Whoa up now brother, I like my free gov't holiday. I don't give a $hit about MLK. It's a day off with pay. Lol. How about a holiday for a real respectful man. Billy Graham.
Yes but it won't. Sad.
Northwest Woodsman: The only good thing about naming streets after him is that it serves as a warning that you should avoid going into that area.
There should have never been any statues to him-he wasn't a great man. He plagiarized and deceived
In jumping the gun to take down all Civil War statues and heroes as reported by ones that lived through the war at the time black & white. I say too we investigate all statues only fair. You want to reinvent history to your liking than all Americans should get a vote!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why release this info now ???
