Removed ambiguous information

[edit]

The article read, wrt to Alberta Williams King's assassin:

Martin Luther King said "I cannot hate any man" in relation to Chenault at her funeral but resigned as a pastor at the Ebenezer Church the next year. This ended a period where three generations of her family were pastors at the church since 1894.

Non-objective wording in first sentence of Assassination section

[edit]

"Alberta King was shot and killed on June 30, 1974, at age 69, by Marcus Wayne Chenault, a 23-year-old black man from Ohio who was a sicko and a murder and felt like just killing someone and probably didn't even know that was who he had killed at the time."

The part in question I am referring to would be "who was a sicko and a murder and felt like just killing someone and probably didn't even know that was who he had killed at the time." Regardless of the truth in the statement, this sentence reads very improper, with words like "sicko", along with being grammatically incorrect.

I'd correct it myself, but I'm new to wikipedia editing so forgive me if I'm wrong. Keeganjones100 (talk) 02:19, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
