According to a release from the FBI, Page used donation money from his non-profit, "Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta" to pay for personal items. Some of those include a home, property, weapons, food and clothing.

Authorities said Page responded to social media inquiries in June by saying that donated funds were only used for “movement-related” expenses, not for “personal items.” But the FBI alleges that a debit card linked to the bank account was used for food, dining, entertainment, clothing, furniture, a home security system, and a home purchase, and no expenditures related to social or racial injustice efforts could be identified.

I'm shocked. I could have never seen this coming. My faith in the movement is shattered. I need to question and re-evaluate all my beliefs. This is sarcasm.

Impossible. King wanted people to be judged by their character, not their skin color. That's not what's currently on vogue.
I have tried to make that argument before, here on these forums, but I was told that this was historical revisionism and that I was invoking some sort of fantasy version of MLK.

Yeah, I didn't get it either.
