You probably already guessed who King would prefer to see banned: white males (of which, some maintain, he is one).
The New York Daily News’ senior “justice” writer blasted Christians Monday for perpetrating white supremacy in their support of President Donald Trump’s immigration halt.
King put out a series of tweets accusing Christians who supported the halt of “fake faith” after the Supreme Court allowed Trump’s immigration ban to go into effect.
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
Shame on every "Christian" among us supporting a ban on immigrants and refugees. Your faith is as fake as a $3 bill. https://t.co/DJJIBiehz4

To support a ban on immigrants & refugees, while calling yourself a Christian, is not faith, it's white supremacy disguised as religion.

King added that conservatives aren’t really concerned with preventing violence on American soil. White men are more likely to commit terrorists attacks in the United States, he wrote, before seemingly calling for a ban on white men.
Trump, and conservatives, don't have any real interest in making America safe, or lessening the violence.
That's a ruse, a fabrication. https://t.co/VlnhDGfmFh

Since white men are more likely to commit mass shootings and terrorists attacks than Muslims, it would make more sense to ban them, King said, while including a link to an article he wrote explaining his “tongue-in-cheek” views.
On this past Sunday, in a bit of tongue-in-cheek hyperbole, I tweeted that if our country truly wanted to ban a demographic in the name of halting mass shootings, it would be best to ban white people. After all, white people, white men to be particular, and not African-Americans or Latinos or immigrants or Muslims are responsible for the overwhelming majority of America’s mass shootings.
