He said this event occurred at same day as MLK speech in DC and Beck Glenn used MLK's "I have a dream" speech, that how offended him.

This event is non-political, but some media makes this event as political.

I find it amusing that people have a problem with the day Beck chose considering that MLKs niece spoke at the event

For me, I dunno and not Beck fan so will find if conversational is bigger or not.
Did Beck speak against MLK? Did he say anything bad about MLK?

That's what I'm wondering. What was it that was so bad? It was a day about honoring people.

To me, no but for my friend, yes.

No need to worry about it and events do have conversational so it isn't big deal, unless there is something to change.

He didn't. MLK's niece was there today.

Well, some people don't agree with you and check my post above for reasons.

I already explained in my post above.

That's fine if you don't find Glenn Beck's remark is offensive but, some people found that is offensive or disrespectful.

Finally, let agree to disagree.

I means Glenn Beck's used line and same day as event that where MLK was in, my grammar sucks.

I think people at the Glenn Beck rally are the kind of people that treat the Bible like it's a software license agreement. They don't really read it, they just scroll to the bottom and click: I agree.

These are the first pictures of the rally I've seen today, just now.

I haven't seen all the pictures of all the people yet, so I don't know.
