Racism question about Al Sharpton.?

Correct, Al Sharpton brings racism with him everywhere he goes. Such a shame that so many people fail to see this. It makes me sad for my children.

OK, here's a hypothetical for you. Let's say it's a certain individula's job to go out everyday M-F 9 to 5 and find situations where racism has been afflicted upon African Americans... Now in order for this person to log an incident as racism, he has to have a smoking gun, I mean it can't be anything it has to be a credible situation.

Are you honestly trying to tell me that that person would have problems staying employed? He would be booked solid for the next five years!

The racism you are tired of hearing about man, exists. I understand how you mayfeel Sharpton is exploiting the situation but if there wasn't a situation to exploit he would be out of business right? The fact of the matter is you're just tired of hearing about it... hell, so am I but being black I can't ignore it like you can. It could be me the next day.

The only thing I can guess is that you're a white and are not paying attention to the content of Al Sharpton's message. That usually happens quite a bit with ones like you. I have concluded it's an illness for you because I do not find Al Sharpton racist at all.

He makes a lot of sense unlike you.

Both of them have questionable integrity. Plus they are both fouled mouth sexists. They were at a hotel I was working at and the were talking loud to each other socially (they did'nt know others were also in the meeting room)and all either one of them could do was say the F-word, Sh*t, and yes, hold on the N-word. Now this was a few years ago, but still. One word that was not in their vocabulary was "thank you" or please.

Wow you love Bill O'Reilly. Bill comments were more ignorant then racists. But go ahead and blame Sharpton if it makes you feel better.

first of all, not all black people agree with Revs. Al and Jesse.

secondly, i think the racists attack the Revs. because they're taking a stand for what they believe in instead of sitting on their @sses.

Al Sharpton is very racist. Here is the proof that Al Sharpton is very racist.

TAX EVASION: In a 1988 interview, Sharpton said he saw no reason why blacks should pay taxes. “If we do not have a justice system that protects us, what are we paying for?” Sharpton has faced multiple charges—and one conviction—of tax evasion.

TAWANA BRAWLY: 1987. Al Sharpton, during the infamous Tawana Brawley case, falsely accused a former assistant district attorney of ****** and sodomizing Ms. Brawley. Young Tawana stated that white racists abducted, *****, and sodomized her, scrawling the initials “KKK” on her in human feces. A grand jury later found the entire incident a complete hoax. Most likely, Ms. Brawley, afraid of punishment for staying out too late, fabricated the entire story. This did not stop Reverend Al Sharpton, who accused Pagones an assistant district attorney, of the crime. “We stated openly that Steven Pagones did it. If we’re lying, sue us, so we can go into court with you and prove you did it. Sue us—sue us right now.”

Pagones did. After receiving death threats, and threats against his child, Pagones sued Sharpton and two others for defamation. A jury unanimously concluded that Sharpton defamed Pagones, ordering Sharpton to pay $65,000 to Pagones. The Reverend promptly announced his intention not to pay. A couple years later, Sharpton’s buddies passed the hat and paid off Sharpton’s debt, which totaled $87,000 with interest and penalties. To this day, never having paid one penny of his own to Pagones, Sharpton refuses to apologize, “I did what I believed….They are asking me to grovel. They want black children to say they forced a black man coming out of the hard-core ghetto to his knees….Once you begin bending, it’s ‘did you bend today?’ or ‘I missed the apology, say it again.’ Once you start compromising, you lose respect for yourself.”

CENTRAL PARK JOGGER: In 1989 “the jogger,” a young white woman, was monstrously ***** and nearly beaten to death in Central Park. Sharpton insisted—despite the defendants’ confessions—that her black attackers were innocent, modern-day Scottsboro Boys trapped in “a fit of racial hysteria.” Sharpton charged that the jogger’s boyfriend did it, and organized protests outside the courthouse, chanting, “The boyfriend did it!” and denouncing the victim as “Whore!” He brought Tawana Brawley to the trial, to show her “white justice” and arranged for her to meet the attackers. Sharpton appealed for a psychiatrist to examine the victim, generously saying, “It doesn’t even have to be a black psychiatrist….We’re not endorsing the damage to the girl—if there was this damage.” (While it doesn’t excuse his calling the victim a “whore” and denigrating any damage to her, or his accusations against the boyfriend, the convictions of the accused were eventually vacated, despite their taped confessions, after another man—whose DNA matched—confessed to the **** in 2002.)

CROWN HEIGHTS/ “DIAMOND MERCHANTS”: In 1991, Gavin Cato, a seven-year-old black child was killed in a traffic accident in Crown Heights (in Brooklyn), when a car driven by a Hasidic Jew went out of control. Sharpton turned it into a racial incident. Sharpton led 400 protesters through the Jewish section of Crown Heights, with one protester holding a sign that read, “The White Man Is the Devil.” There were four nights of rock- and bottle-throwing, and a young Talmudic scholar was surrounded by a mob shouting, “Kill the Jew” and stabbed to death. A hundred others were injured. Sharpton said, “The world will tell us that [Gavin Cato] was killed by accident….What type of city do we have that would allow politics to rise above the blood of innocent babies?…Talk about how Oppenheimer in South Africa sends diamonds straight to Tel Aviv and deals with the diamond merchants right here in Crown Heights….All we want to say is what Jesus said: If you offend one of these little ones, you got to pay for it. No compromise. Pay for your deeds.” Later Sharpton said, “If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over to my house.”
