Sharpton and Obama Have Double Standard for Racism [Digg]
2008-07-17 23:24:00 Senator, you said that you would bring people together and that there was no place for racism in the election process and in this country. A while ago you called for Don Imus to be fired for a racist remark and yet you basically ignored the racist remark by Jesse Jackson. Senator, did you ignore it because he is black? Why do you have different...

Rev. Sharpton puts his two cents in Nas' album name change
2008-05-22 17:54:00 Al Sharpton has gone on record to applaud the National Action Network?s Decency Initiative for playing a role in motivating Nas to change his album title. As of May 19, Nasir confirmed his decision to change his "Nigger" album to Untitled. "Clearly, putting their focus and pressure on the companies and not engaging in a fruitless pursuit of chasing a never ending and ever changing roster of artists has proven to be smart," Rev. Sharpton said in a statement. "The record companies and retailers have the power as this Nas matter shows. Had not the [NAN's] Decency Initiative and other groups put the pressure on, this change of title on Nas' album would never had been a corporate concern." Prior to the name removal, "Nigger" drew a lot of reactions from fans as well as celebrities, leaders, and retailers who were kind of "iffy" about putting the album on their shelves. Good luck Nas, you stand out in our circle of artists. I really hope this album provides us with the same quality musi...

[Asinine] The Rev. Al Sharpton once threatened to march on Dr. Dre?s record
2008-05-21 23:55:00 NYPost
The Rev. Al Sharpton pulls a Suge Knight type move.
2008-05-21 16:04:00 Dr. Dre's former right hand man Bruce Williams claims that the Rev. Al Sharpton tried to extort both he and Dre. He allegedly threatened to march and protest against the label for using ill concieved words and degrading woman. He wanted them to pay 500 thousand dollars to a undisclosed charity. They gave Al 250 thousand dollars. Williams maintains that he helped Sharpton orchestrate and defuse the squabble between rappers "50cent" and "The Game" in Harlem. Willams also said that "The Game" and "50cent" both ponied up 253 thousand dollars to "The Boys Choir of Harlem". Did i fail to mention that Williams is out selling a book called "Rollin with Dre, the Unauthorized account". If this is true then Al is doing what the Rev. Jesse Jackson does which is threatening to boycott unless they pay up. The mob used to do this too but with force. Anyway i'm out. 40MasterE.G Radio, ExtravaGangsta Radio,

2008-05-19 16:31:00 The Rev. Al Sharpton was officially announced as the first artist on Jay-Z's new label. The sharped tongue fiery rabble rouser has joined forces with one of Hip-hop's biggest stars. Sources say that the fit is perfect considering that he is hated by the N.Y.P.D and most white people for being so loud. Not since the late great Notorious B.I.G has New York seen such a big man with a flow to match. Diddy must be foaming at the mouth for not snatching Al up. He has the pimped out hair and is a player who likes to get jiggy with it. I just hope Jay keeps him away from Beyonce. This news has given me goosebumps meng.

"Where we go from there is anybody's guess," said Rachel Noerdlinger, Sharpton's spokeswoman. they'll be arrested praying." Sharpton hopes that the images of people getting arrested for praying will force federal law enforcement officials to take over the investigation of the three NYPD detectives who were acquitted of killing an innocent man in cold blood for no reason. "It's going to be a long struggle, but the race isn't given to the swift or the strong, but to those who endure," Sharpton said.

Sharpton vows to 'close this city' after officer acquittals
2008-04-28 17:53:00 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. "We strategically know how to stop the city so people stand still and realize that you do not have the right to shoot down unarmed, innocent civilians," Sharpton told an overflow crowd of several hundred people at his National Action Network office in the historically black Manhattan neighborhood. "This city is going to deal with the blood of Sean Bell." So, let me get this straight. I seem to be confused. Because Al Sharpton and some people didn't get the guilty verdict they wanted, they can somehow dictate how other people live their lives? Officers fired upon someone who was trying to run them over with his car. 50 shots a bit excessive? Of course, unless it's a firefight. However, the...

Al Sharpton’s big Mac attack
2008-04-28 02:56:00 The victim of a big Mac attack today is Al Sharpton, lover of criminals, and terrorist. How Sharpton loves criminals, Heather Mac Donald, City Journal: “Stop the killing!” Since 1993, 11,353 people have been murdered in New York City. The large majority of victims and perpetrators have been black. Not a single one of those black-on-black killings has prompted protest or demonstrations from the city’s black advocates. Sharpton, Barron, et al. are happy to let thousands of black victims get mowed down by thugs without so much as a whispered call for “peace” or “justice”; it’s only when a police officer, trying to protect the public, makes a good faith mistake in a moment of intense pressure that they rise as vindicators of black life. (As for caring about slain police officers, forget about it. Sixteen cops—including several black policemen—have been killed since 1999, not one of whom elicited a public demonstration of condolence from the race hustlers.) New York C...

Ice Cube, Chamillionaire, Al Sharpton Are Disgusted By The 'Injustice' Of S
2008-04-26 01:50:00 Ice Cube, Chamillionaire, Bun B and DJ Drama express their frustration with Friday's verdict in the Sean Bell shooting case.
What does Sean Bell?s acquittal say about how we should judge police?
2008-04-26 00:29:00 I predicted three weeks ago that the cops who killed Sean Bell and wounded his friends in a 50-shot barrage would be acquitted. Given the burden of proof on the prosecution and the testimony presented in court, I just didn’t see a way the judge would find the accused guilty. Today, all three accused officers were found not guilty on all charges. As I’ve posted before, Bell was killed not because the police did anything criminal, but because they royally screwed up. They may have been cowards, they may have been trying to make a bust, any bust, to put a period on the end of their last night as a unit, but they were certainly incompetent. As a society, we have long tolerated incompetence in our police forces. Many of us even gladly tolerate outright criminal behavior from cops if it’s aimed at potential lawbreakers, reasoning that the accused, who have not been convicted of any crime, deserve what they get. It’s a strange attitude in a society predicated...

Al Sharpton hates the Redskins
2008-03-19 19:17:00 Not really Al Sharpton, though he is apparently the founder of the National Action Network which recently asked the NFL... The Rev. Al Sharpton's organization says Canton has not addressed complaints of police misconduct, so the civil rights group is asking the NFL to cancel this summer's Hall of Fame game in the city. Richard Jones heads the local chapter of the National Action Network, founded by Sharpton. Jones says the group also will publish contact information for black NFL stars so they can be urged to put pressure on the league. And not really "hates the Redskins" either, though that sounds a lot more dramatic than "doesn't want them to play a game" for civil rights reasons. I haven't the foggiest idea what symbolic effect canceling the Redskins v. Colts game could possibly have on alleged police misconduct by Canton authorities, but whatev.

Al Sharpton, NAACP choose violent rapists over victimized woman, child
2008-03-12 00:30:00 A woman and her son are assaulted in a government-subsidized hell in West Palm Beach, Fla., where poor folks are left to rot. Ten teenage boys rape the woman and beat her 12-year-old boy for three hours. They force their victims to lie naked in a tub together, make the woman perform oral sex on her child. Afterwards, they burn the mother's skin and blind the son with cleaning solution. In an act of monstrous arrogance, one perpetrator takes a cell phone picture of his handiwork; another leaves behind a used condom.No one in community hears anything or sees anything. The victims walk to the hospital, in the dark, on their own.If you called yourself a community leader, if you ran a national civil rights organization, if you claimed to devote yourself to the downtrodden, if you were, say, Al Sharpton and the West Palm Beach chapter of the NAACP, who in this sordid story would you offer succor to?

Look who doesn't want help from no Al Sharpton or Jesse:
2008-02-07 22:23:00 Charles Barkley told Playboy magazine that he plans to run for governor of Alabama, but won't ask for campaign help from Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson. "I don't believe in them. They always play the race card, and you can't always play the race card. Sometimes the race card is needed but not in every situation. We have to hold blacks more accountable for their actions" he says.Deezee Say's:I usaually wouldn't because I feel that Charles Barkley is more on the Oreo side of things. But this time I will agree with what he is saying about Jesse and Al, even though most of the time it is racially provoked, I don't think that it is 100% of the time. So I agree, just not with the bolded part of his quote. And that's because more than some of the time blacks are held accountable for every race's actions, and thats the problem.
Al Sharpton To Bill Clinton: Shut Up!

B.J. Clinton, Barack Obama and Al Sharpton
2008-01-17 01:22:00 The Reverend Al Sharpton is a race baiting bigot. So why is a democrat candidate, and the spouse of one, groveling at his feet? Ben Smith, Politico: Al Sharpton didn’t run for President this round, and yet he’s placed himself at the center of things again. Yesterday, Bill Clinton spent the bulk of an hour on his radio show, a hub of the Clinton damage-control tour, and even took calls. Today, Obama was on for 15 minutes, mostly talking policy and economics. For the record, I am inclined to go along with Micheal Crowley, New Republic: A savvy reader writes in to note that Sharpton’s influence among black voters is wildly overstated by the media.
