Utahns celebrate King's legacy

Happy Birthday Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
At a future date, if needs be, in the name of assuageing our liberal guilt, will we attempt to quell illegal immigrant discontent by granting them Cesar Chavez Day?
MLK, the only person with his own holiday (by name), why not look into his past a little bit to find out a little bit more about who he really was? Not to take away from the great work that he helped bring about, but why doesn't anybody look into his, what some would call questionable past?
We call him Dr. and Reverend. Why doesn't anyone talk about his doctoral thesis being plagiarized, including errors of grammar and punctuation, taken exactly from anothers work? Or about his "I have a dream" speech being taken exactly from an address given 10 years earlier at the republican national convention? Or all the womanizing?
Let's just talk about it. Not that Washington and Lincoln didn't have flaws.
Civil Rights day sounds more appropriate to me.

We have a major problem today in Utah
You have no Civil Rights
Your City Council is making laws as if they are a home owners association
They have no right to make laws with the cops sticking their nose in your yard and property
Mayor says they may have business at your house
My house and yard is private property
He has no business with law biding citizens because they make an Ordinance
