Should Aaron McGruder Apologize? HELL NO!

Should Aaron McGruder apologize for the Martin Luther King episode of his cartoon?

Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson and the rest of the black civil rights elite think he should apologize for the MLK portrayal. I have to disagree with these so-called civil rights leaders.

Although I don't always agree with Aaron McGruder, I think that in this case, he said what needed to be said, and he said what these so-called civil rights leaders have been scared to say for years. I think that Al Sharpton and Jesse should shut their mouths (for a change).

Here are 2 quick discussions on this subject from NPR. One from January 26th, and another from February, 2nd. They discuss McGruder at the end of both audio streams.

Here is an old interview with Aaron McGruder, done by Tavis Smiley. Video and audio available.
