    I just saw an interview with a southern man saying he didn't consider the statues and flags symbols of racism and it was unfair for people to claim that he did because they don't know what he feels.  Then he goes to make an allusion to something named after MLK JR and, oops, calls it Martin Luther Coon...stammer stammer stutter, interview over.

    Which station were you watching?  
    It was posted to Facebook

    I saw that interview too. I don't think it was technically intentional. I think he has been calling MLK that for many, many years, likely to the great amusement of all his redneck racist friends, to the point where it's committed to muscle memory, so he just couldn't control that it came out of his mouth that way.

    You're way behind the times - I think I probably saw it way back on Friday or something! It was reported pretty widely.

    Funny, google doesn't appear to produce any results of this interview that yourself and rgambs saw.  Do you have one?

    No, I'm not doing it for you just because I refuse to help when you're trolling. When I googled the term used I got 408,000 results. Maybe you don't know how to Google?

    I'm serious.  I can't find a single google article that talks about this interview that was reported widely on various media sites.  Which sites?

    I'm serious too. They are out there, there is a big Google result when you search the term, god knows wtf you're doing wrong to not see anything, and I am not willing to help you out of pure spite. I'm tempted to add a passive aggressive smiley face, but I won't.

    I'm just saying that I would like to see this interview that was widely reported.  I can't even find it on youtube.  Weird.

    If you weren't a troll it would be weird. But for you, it's not weird at all.

    See this whole conversation is weird.  Where is this article that was widely published and only apparently seen by two people on here?
