Posted by admin / Under King Street (Toronto)
Remember the beatdown Richard King, former West Point cadet, allegedly got at the hands of Patti LaBelle’s bodyguard Efren Holmes and her son Zuri Edwards at a Houston airport? Well, a federal judge granted Zuri Edwards approval to file a third-party complaint against Continental Airlines for allegedly overserving alcohol to Richard King before the altercation occurred. Richard King sued Patti LaBelle, whose real name is Patricia Edwards, in state court last June claiming she ordered her bodyguards to attack him because he was standing too close to her luggage at Bush Intercontinental Airport. Besides LaBelle, King named her son/bodyguard Zuri...

Posted by admin / Under King Street (Toronto)
The former West Point cadet who's suing singer Patti LaBelle's entourage for allegedly assaulting him at Bush Intercontinental Airport last March has added an airport operations worker to the list of defendants. In an amended complaint filed earlier this week, Richard King accuses Houston Airport System employee Cahl Rasmussen of relaying false and defamatory information to King's West Point supervisors -- namely, that King instigated the confrontation that left him bloody and landed him in the hospital. "[Rasmussen] was not a witness, but without compunction, passed on the aforesaid false report as if it was true," the complaint states. "In...

'We have a duty to preparefor the worst': Peter King warnsIran has 'hundreds' of Hezbollah
Posted by admin / Under King Street (Toronto)
Iranian-backed militant group Hezbollah may have hundreds of operatives based in the United States, and Hezbollah--not al-Qaida--poses the greatest terrorist threat to Americans, the Republican chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, Peter King, said today. Since September 11 2001, America’s counter-terror officials have focussed on al-Qaida and home-grown radicalised American extremists, said the New York representative at a hearing of his committee. But, now, the terrorist threat to the United States is shifting. ‘As Iran moves closer to nuclear weapons and there is increasing concern over war between Iran and Israel, we must also focus on Iran's secret operatives

How Derrick Bell Beat Martin Luther King Jr.
Posted by admin / Under King Street (Toronto)
“History proves that the white man is a devil,” said Malcolm X. “Whites are liars,” said Jeremiah Wright. “I love to harass white folks,” said Derrick Bell. “This is what you deserve. You get what you deserve, white boy,” a black teenager said to Allen Coon, a white student on the porch of his own home, as he set him on fire. “Don’t tell me words don’t matter,” Obama once said. And he was right. Words do matter. The words of his mentors that have rooted hate so deep in the black community that it has become a cancer, a...

King Kept Guns at Home for Self-Defense and Sought Right to Carry
Posted by admin / Under King Street (Toronto)
"The late Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. kept guns at home in Alabama for self-defense," gun law expert John M. Snyder recalled here on the eve of the national holiday named for the civil rights leader. "At one time," Snyder continued, "King applied for a permit to carry a concealed handgun, but was denied. He was concerned for his personal safety, just as are a lot of law-abiding American citizens. "This fact underscores the value of a public policy regarding constitutional carry. With constitutional carry, a law-abiding American citizen could exercise his or her constitutional right to carry a concealed...

Martin Luther King, Jr. : Zionist
Posted by admin / Under King Street (Toronto)
Martin Luther King, Jr., was an opponent of the jihad against Israel. While there are some disputed quotations circulating in this connection, here are some key and authenticated MLK quotes: "I cannot stand idly by, even though I happen to live in the United States and even though I happen to be an American Negro and not be concerned about what happens to the Jews in Soviet Russia. For what happens to them happens to me and you, and we must be concerned." "Israel's right to exist as a state in security is uncontestable."

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PACIFISM & NON-VIOLENCE
Posted by admin / Under King Street (Toronto)
Soft-headed liberals (sorry for the redundancy) too often confuse non-violent protest with pacifism. In many cases, peaceful protest is an important tool in fighting for liberty. But renouncing the use of violence in principle, under any circumstances, simply makes one an accomplice to evil and is an abomination.

Obama bypasses Senate, installs new consumer chief
Posted by admin / Under King Street (Toronto)
President Barack Obama says he won't take "no" as an answer from Republicans, so he's going around them to appoint the head of a new consumer protection agency. Obama says Republicans would just keep holding Richard Cordray's nomination hostage—and the president says that's inexcusable and wrong. He says Cordray must be in place in order for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to start helping consumers deal with unscrupulous mortgage companies, dishonest payday lenders, and others. Obama announced the appointment of Cordray during a stop Wednesday in Ohio, where Cordray once served as attorney general. Republicans are outraged but Obama says...
