King Jr's Criminal Theory
Alexandra Quintero Martin Luther King Jr. was murderer by a man who people never thought could do a crime like that because of his social class.People speculated that it was a bigger and better power that helpd him get money to kill King.. Organizations like the KKK could had been the influence that helpd Ray persue the urge of murdering King. People chose persecute only by their impulse and not by their right state of mine. During that time they never question who has help or even if he was set up. Have you ever heard about suicide boomers, those people take their life for an idea and believes they have. Ray had an idea of black men not belonging mix in with the other people (society). Having the believe that people brain washed him …show more content…

A man named Lloyd Jowers owned this bar. He was paid by movie producer Frank Libretto to hire someone to take out MLK Jr . . However the hit man hired to kill was not Raul or Ray.(jgndjgdigj)

The fourth theory and final theory that will be mentioned involves a government conspiracy. The government hired Ray to commit the murder but just to insure MLK dies a team of Green Berets were set up around the Lorraine Motel. To insure the secrecy of this operation, the leader of the Green Berets Billy Edison was killed. However this conspiracy is false because Billy is still alive. Martin Luther King Jr. was an outstanding man, who accomplished many things in his 39-years of lifetime. Today there is a monument at the Lorraine Motel to show appreciation for MLK Jr. No mater who killed King they can never take away the footprint King left during his short life. Conspiracies are just oppinions we might never know who really killed King or who was behind it . And in my opppinion the government felt threaten by kings ways and how he was making a difference even white folks could see. I think Raul was hired by the government to kill King , but he also had to fined someone with a criminal record so he could take the blame of King’s assassination

    There have been many conspiracies as to who planned the assassination of John Kennedy. Rumors began to fly as to how planned it: Castro forces, the Mafia, the FBI, the CIA, the KGB, and Lee Harvey Oswald, but many believed that a “lone gunman” could not have committed the murder. The main suspect was Lee Harvey Oswald, a 24-year-old ex-Marine who was known to read Marxist literature. Shortly after being discharged from the Corps in September of 1959, Lee Harvey Oswald went to Moscow to defect from the United States, although his request for residency was denied he was allowed to stay within the USSR where he met his wife. Soon after he moved back to the States only to focus his interests on Cuba and Fidel Castro, where he then ended up in Mexico City, where he applied for a visa to Cuba. Frustrated by delays, he returned to Dallas in October and took a job at the book depository.…

    What really happened on the 22nd of November in the year 1963? This question has lingered throughout minds of American citizens for the past 50 years. Who killed the beloved John Frederick Kennedy? What would be one’s intentions behind this atrocious action? Some say the government was behind his death; others say that it was Lee Harvey Oswald, maybe an African American, or even Jack Ruby. A conspiracy that the government was behind his death is another irrational theory. Over the years a numerous amount of investigators and researches have been evaluating the incident using evidence such as location, purchases made by Oswald, using information from witnesses; they even dug into Oswald’s personal life to find any information that would be a sufficient reason to kill the President. Although there are various conspiracies regarding the assassination of John F. Kennedy, there is also a surplus of evidence that Lee Harvey Oswald was indeed the assassin.…

    With many different views it is difficult to remember Martin Luther King and Malcolm X were both fighting the same war for the same people. King and Malcolm X fought the same battle using different methods. Both wanted to end racism and discrimination. King agreed with Malcolm X that Blacks had to love themselves. Both were instilled with a hope for a better day, society and world. King dreamed of a society of peace, freedom, justice, and equality. They became role models for African-American youth and achieved much with their efforts. They introduced self-pride to their people. Both methods were effective. Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X were both great men who died trying to make their home and country better but in the end both men’s…

    James Earl Ray

    The Rev. Jesse Jackson says it's a plot: "I have always believed that the government was part of a conspiracy, either directly or indirectly, to assassinate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.," he wrote in the forward to James Earl Ray's autobiography Who Killed Martin Luther King Jr.? Former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations and Atlanta Mayor Andrew Young believes the government was responsible for King's death, as well. "I've always thought the FBI might be involved in some way," he said. "You have to remember this was a time when the politics of assassination was acceptable in this country. It was during the period just before Allende's murder. I think it's naïve to assume these institutions were not capable of doing the same thing at home or to say each of these deaths (King and the two Kennedys) was an isolated incident by 'a single assassin.' It was government policy."…

    "Martin Luther King Jr.'s letter from Birmingham Jail, which was written in April 16, 1963, is a passionate letter that addresses and responds to the issue and criticism that a group of white clergymen had thrown at him and his pro- black American organization about his and his organization's non- violent demonstrative actions against racial prejudice and injustice among black Americans in Birmingham. King writes the letter to defend his organization's actions and the letter is also an appeal to the people, both the white and black American society, the social, political, and religious community, and the whole of American society to encourage desegregation and encourage solidarity and equality among all Americans, with no stratifications according to racial differences. King's letter from Birmingham Jail addresses the American society, particularly the political and religious community of the American society. Specifically, King's letter addresses three important groups in the American society: the white American political community, white American religious community, and the black American society. King addressed these communities as the primary groups wherein racial segregation is continuously proliferated (the white American political and religious community) and points much of his arguments to and for his fellow black Americans in the society. King's main thesis in writing the Birmingham letter is that, racial segregation, or injustice to the black American society, is due to the continuous encouragement of the white American society, particularly the powerful communities in politics and religions. King defends his primary thesis all throughout the length of his letter, and the arguments that he has made to prove that his thesis is true and valid will be the focus of this rhetorical analysis. In addressing and confronting the problem of injustices among the black Americans in the American society, particularly the violence that had happened in Birmingham, and…

    On November 22nd, 1963, President John F. Kennedy (JFK) was shot and killed in a motorcade running through Dealy Plaza, in Dallas, Texas. Shortly after, a man by the name of Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested and charged with the murder of President Kennedy. Over the years there has been much controversy over if Lee Harvey Oswald was in fact, the only man involved in the assassination of JFK. The assassination is still a topic of debate to this day and has spawned many conspiracy theories. At the time, there was little persuasive evidence to prove that Oswald was involved in any sort of conspiracy to assassinate the president, but as time went on people began to grow suspicious of certain things. In 1966, Mark Lane was one of the first to introduce the idea that Oswald did not act alone with the publication of his book Rush to Judgment. Now today, 75% of people believe Lee Harvey Oswald did not act alone[1], 70% of respondents believed that the assassination involved more than one person[2]. Also 66% of Americans believe that there was a conspiracy, while 74% believed that there was a cover up[3]. It is inevitable that there is much confusion as to who was involved in the assassination of President Kennedy, but I firmly believe that there is indisputable evidence that shows that Lee Harvey Oswald did not act alone in the assassination.…

    Groups such as the Ku Klux Klan, known as the KKK didn’t care about what Martin Luther King Jr. had to say. The KKK scared blacks into leaving town by burning homes, crosses, buildings, putting up signs, and killing blacks all over the country. Blacks were portrayed as horrible people in the 1960s ("blogspot.com"). If whites saw blacks somewhere they would call them out their name, and tell their children not to communicate with them and they would ask what’s she or he doing here.…

    A preacher, an author, and a leader in the American civil rights movement of the 1950s, Martin Luther King Jr. defends the actions of the African American community in his essay “A Letter from Birmingham Jail.” King’s purpose is to prove why the negative “extremist” label that is slapped on the protesters does not accurately reflect the actions that are taken to fight for equality. He adopts a hopeful tone in order to connect to the rationality and humanity in his mainly white audience despite their differences.…

    After years of segregation and inequality, one man stood up and fought for what was right. This man spoke of dreams and for what he felt as morally right, ethically right, lawfully right and emotionally right. This man spoke of freedom, brotherhood and equality among all people, no matter what race they were. He brought forth facts and emotions to America that was being felt by the black community, which was being treated so badly. This man was Martin Luther King Jr., a clergyman and civil rights leader, who later was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his work. King opened the eyes of America to a broader sense of understanding, to a wider view of the inequality and hate that almost every black person had to live through at that time. After several peaceful protests King was arrested for demonstrating in defiance of a court order, by participating in a parade, he was then taken to Birmingham jail (Leff & Utley, 8-9).…

    For years people have believed that the man who shot and killed MLK was James Earl Ray, Police claim that Ray was behind the assassination, but there was no real evidence putting Earl at the crime scene. JER spent his life in prison based mainly on a coerced confession which he immediately retracted. None of the tests performed on the rifle Ray allegedly used, were able to link that rifle to the actual bullet that killed Dr. Martin Luther King. Kings own family didn’t believe that James was the killer, and recently won a civil court case proving there was a conspiracy.…
