Why is this man given any legitimacy? I mean hell, they've got him doing "global climate crisis" ads on TV with Gore. This man through his words and actions is a murderer.
First it was Freddy's Fashion Mart and the lives he cost there seeking revenge for "the black man". Then the ruckus he caused defending the Jena 6 juvenile delinquents who beat a white kid senseless and now he has chosen to exploit the death of Sean Bell for his own agenda. Oh, and let's not forget the racial hatred Al Sharpton spewed upon whites and this country over the fake rape allegations of one Tawana Brawley.
"NEW YORK (AP) - Hundreds of angry people marched through Harlem on Saturday after the Rev. Al Sharpton promised to "close this city down" to protest the acquittals of three police detectives in the 50-shot barrage that killed a groom on his wedding day and wounded two friends.
The rally at Sharpton's office was followed by a 20-block march down Malcolm X Boulevard and then across 125th Street, Harlem's main business thoroughfare, where some bystanders yelled out "Kill the police!"
Curiously, of the 3 cops who fired those 50 shots....two of the police officers, Isnora and Cooper, are black. Oliver is white. Sharpton says he's not done and soon he and his hordes will be "shutting the city down". Whatever the feck that means.
Due to the fact that I was not there that night, nor was old Al, none of us know what went down. Bell and his friends were extremely drunk, they could have been threatening, coming at the officers. None of us know. The families will sue for millions and most likely win. You cannot turn back time and bring Bell back, so what good does MORE violence bring?
Answer: NONE.
